The very early 50s were still a developmental period for tvs. I also seem to run into more weird issues with most sets from this period, mostly due to bad resistors. I read somewhere that for some reason or another (Possibly the Korean War?) electronics from the very early 50s used lower quality resistors.

The sets that are real dependable workhorses tend to appear from '57 on up.
