Here an interesting true story.
The one I had I found in the trash in Harper Woods, Mich. where I was living at my parent's house. I didn't know how to fis it, and, it had a very dim horizontal white line, though it had audio reception.. I ended up throwing it back out. Sam's didn't have a schematic on the set, and, American Television didn't even list the model in its' line up.
Exit to about 6 years ago. Another one came up, and, the dealer said it was in Harper Woods, Mich. Too far for me to go. Yet, I contacted them, and, they let me call them on the phone.
They told me this was her original tv., and, the set I found down the same block was actually her mother's set.

That really intrigued me. These were monster sets, and, that 27" tube took up alot of space, and, still stuck out the back of the set.
I've also since then found they made the same general set in both 21", and, 24".
Looked the same. Just smaller.....
The chassis, as I remember, was copper plated, but, cheaply built. I think it only had 16 tubes, plus, picture tube. It was a transformer operated set...
I think they were actually built in the mid 50's. The tube line up included 6DQ6, 6AX4, 1B3, 5U4, 3 video I F 's, and, one audio I F.
Had a Sarkes Tarzian drum tuner. Great timer/
6" speaker.
