Pretty advanced for 1960 I'd say! lol Actually, I like the looks of this set.... wonder if it's American made. I'd grab it if it were closer.
That is a Sanyo built Sears from the early '80's. Uses a SS chassis and inline gun CRT. The picture was OK when working right; but, the bigger names still had it beat. This set was probably built at the old Warwick Electronics plant in Arkansas.

Several years ago, someone gave me a slightly newer Sanyo/Sears console that had lightning damage. After repairing the power supply, it actually had a good picture. I ended up giving it to my neighbor for him to give to a needy family member.
