"An interesting fatc: in the early years of Italian (b/w) television, from the mid 50s to the early 60s, some American manufacturers (Emerson, Philco, Admiral, Dumont, Raytheon, RCA) had TV manufacturing plants in Italy, their Italian sets were an interesting mix of Italian and American parts, styling and technologies."
The same thing happened here as well: Admiral, Philco, GE and other American companies had plants here. All gone now, except the Philco plant, that ended in the hands of a Brazilian group. But that one is ALSO in financial trouble today.
