That control worked with a circuit in the set that injected a soft, warm blue to brown cast into b&w TV pictures; blue at one end of the rotation, brown at the other, and neutral (normal b&w) at center, IIRC. Most people got confused as to how to use the control, so most of the time it was set to neutral and forgotten.
