Honest, Dad, it followed me home! (another Maggie)
I have no business bringing this one into the house, but I couldn't let the owners toss it like they were planning to do. It sat through a yard sale with no offers.
The owner tells me that it has not been turned on since about 1974 or so, when Mama got color TV. They ran the stereo sometimes, but stopped using it when tapes came along.
It's a Magnavox AM/FM/Phono/ 24" B/W TV in a cherry cabinet. It has all the factory paperwork with it, and is in really nice shape. It's a model #1MV356R. On 3/30/73, an RCA Silverama 24AHP4 was installed. I've gotten this info from the paperwork envelope.
I'll have pictures as soon as I can. The set is safely loaded on the back of my truck... out of the weather... Until I can figure out where to put this baby.
DaveWM, I have a name from Magnavox for the video sentry/videomatic feature that our Maggie B/W's have. It's in the owners booklet: It's MAGNALUX. Cool, Eh?
If the set is totally fried, its still a very nice piece of furniture. Sliding doors covering the CRT face... Nice.
