Many thanks for posting that information. I think everyone was thinking of the photo of Charles A. Seidel and his amazing 7" TV collection in the Flick Of The Switch.
Kent Warner indirectly sparked my interest in vintage TV's way back around 1980 when I was 13. He had a short article about TV collecting in a book simply called "TV Book" by Judy Fireman from 1977 (
http://www.amazon.com/TV-Book-The-Ul.../dp/0894800027), which is in my book collection now. It features his TRK-12, which he mentions that he recently purchased, his 3" Pilot that he "rescued from a junk-pile", and his RCA 621TS. I instantly became fascinated, but back then you really didn't see the early sets turning-up anywhere, so I began collecting radios. I did eventually end-up with the Pilot and RCA 621 though!
Sorry to hear Kent passed years ago. I would have loved to see some good photo's of his collection.
