I have that exact same 12-inch RCA roundie console that's to the right of the RCA Dynamic Demonstrator display that's in this picture. Mine also has the doors as well. It's the RCA on the right with the doors, 12-inch CRT, and rectangular grid speaker grille and is in a mahogany veneer finish. I got it in the summer of 2009 in August.
This a really awesome picture taken in 1949 or very early 1950 at the very latest. This picture was taken in a general Dry Goods store with a music/TV/radio department, most likely in a smaller city or town where there wasn't a large department store. It's these small-town Ma & Pa type stores that are very sadly missed today because of Wal-Mart and other big-box retailers who helped to wreck these small-town stores very tragically putting many people out of work as well.
