About 20 years ago I had all kinds of 60s/early 70s color sets. Motorola, Zenith, GE, Philco-Ford, RCA, Admiral, Sylvania, Bradford, JVC. I loved 'em, every single one, but trashed them. Everyone told me they weren't collectible, that I shouldn't like 'em. Maybe not their exact words, but it was clear that I was not "normal" for wanting to keep them. So they are all gone, long gone. I didn't start rebuilding that part of my collection until I found VK, and I knew it was okay to enjoy such things! (you could probably have a pretty deep discussion about this, deeper than I want to delve into). My message to anyone out there is, ignore anyone who says you're a fool for wanting a 60s bw console or a late 70s solid state color set or something from the 80s. The last time I checked it's not a sin to own one, so what does it matter?
