Well I spoke to the seller, which is a lady.. I asked her about the history and she said her parents bought it new.. I asked her if it still worked or if she had tried it, and she said she didn't know, it was the down stairs TV, while they had gotten a newer one for upstairs.. I asked her when they stopped using it, and she guessed around 20 years ago, that would be around the early 90s, I said they probably stopped using it probably longer than 20 years ago.. More like the 70s or early 80s, and she seemed to agree.. So it's coming from the original owner, and looks like it may have been well used, which could be a good or bad thing.. Good if the tube is a newer rebuild, and if the fly is still good, or been replaced..
