"That was one of the stores, I was referring to. The downtown Boston Store.
They had the second largest TV and radio department, Schusters, being the largest!
Boston Store's private label was AMC for TV's, radios and appliances. A lot of their electronic products were sourced by Wells Gardner and a few others.
They became a so-called Magnavox "Salon" in the late 60's or so. After that, the only make they sold was Magnavox. "


I remember Schusters. Gimbals department store was big also. Their Southgate store had a particularly large display of color sets. I spent hours and many visits trying to decide. For some reason, the Magnavoxs looked very good. Think there was Popular Science write up saying Magnavox had the most realistic color for 1966.
