My Marlborough is here
Last weekend I brought home my newly found Marlborough. The date on the cabinet under the TV chassis says May 23, 1949. The turntable is a single tone arm 3 speed. The TV has tuner left, volume right. No channel 1. Oddly for that year the FM radio is dual band. This puppy is heavy! Separate 4-6V6's, parallel push pull audio amp in the bottom next to the usual 20 pound power supply. The 16" steel CRT has a lot of rubber gasket filling the gap between the porthole bezel and the screen, almost like it could have used the 19".
