I agree whole heartedly with this statement I have have been asked why I bother with some inferior, junky piece of obsolete equipment. People really don't get the old TV thing. Now OIL CANS and TIN SIGNS; they make sense and are useful; right!?!?
Anyway, I really came to say that you will sometimes see when watching Adam 12 or Dragnet (second series) that a set like this will be in some old persons home as it was pretty dated then. Not long ago I saw the Adam 12 guys looking like Methuselah's grandpa and I thought how life sure is funny as far as time goes. In one way, this set; that show, etc are not that awfully long ago. But in another way, human life span I guess; it's a pretty good chunk of time. Feeling philosophical I guess....
