Most all brands of color sets had remotes available... But since off-brands were often bought for economy reasons, the remote would be skipped. I guess if you could afford the additional $100 or so for remote, you could afford a major brand TV. Just as with cars; very few '60s & '70s Chevys had power windows even though they were available. Nearly all Buicks, Oldsmobiles, and Cadillacs have had power windows since the 60s.
