I haven't counted in decades, but probably a total of 200 or so. This includes my collection of pocket TVs (a few dozen), and my collection of small CRT Sony color sets (about 40), which all together take up the space of one console. My high number was over 400 sets, and that was in 1989. It was out-of-control, and I wound up paying more for rented storage than the collection would ever be worth, so I sold off most of it. I kept a few sets with personal value to me, and since then, my "generation II" collection has built up to about as big as I want to allow it. I have to explain to my wife, how there is an apartment in a complex we have, which stands incompleted and without income, is full of old TVs. And there are numerous large TVs in every room of the house. And a motorcycle in the livingroom.
