Spudz-here is the official word on the age of your set:
My Sam's dates to 1959 (set #438). The Olympic is the HB chassis.
The crt on my set dates to the 22nd week of 1959.
So let's just guess that this thing was on the floor for Christmas of '59, and possibly in your house by 1960 (if things moved as fast as possible).
Looking at your picture, I can tell you a little more about this set-there was originally an antenna strung around the back in a single loop, and it has now been torn off, and dangling free. I wouldn't be surprised if your parents didn't keep this set going too long, as my Olympic was such a headache. What was the tv you remember growing up with, while this one sat idle?
