Here is one pic that I just happened to have stored in my computer. I have the knobs in on the bench since I pull the chassis fairly often for a rainy day. A ready made family is now in the mix
so the clock is ticking for my collection cull.....
B.T.W This is a 24" model which along with being a remote set with high fidelity sound, to me, makes it unique. Again this is "to me" because evidently these sets generate very little interest and a 24" is no big deal. Seems to me most every 50's set I have ever run into from around 1953/4 and up is a 21". I was excited when I found this that it would be a perfect work horse even in this day and age. Supposedly dependable, decent viewing size, and good sound. Thats all I need!!
I'm avoiding flat screen, HD, digital, wall size television as long as possible to keep from setting some crazy new standard of creature comfort in which soon most folks can never turn back. I'm pretty flexable so far as far as technology goes. At least as far as audio goes. I know people who convert their whole music library as soon as a new trend hits the market. These are many times the folks that WISH that they had their old records back. I can go from a CD to an 8 track, or an LP and back in a single listening session. To get back to the TV topic I have always surprised people in the fact that I enjoy black and white viewing just as much as color. For me it makes no real difference. Actually I get a kick out of this if for no other reason I think of the money people spend, that I havent spent to be entertained.
Well I gotta get to Wal (China) Mart to grab that new BLUE RAY player, and the latest version of HOME THEATER before the big LAYOFF!!! Just kidding, except the layoff part
