It's nice to see something kept by the family of the original owners that long.
The closest I come to that TV wise was a 1976 23" Quasar WID set that can be seen in a linked youtube video in the What I want post linked in my signature....We had that until the late 90's-early 2000's....My curiosity (wanted to know why sound started before picture and turned it off and on repeatedly) killed it in the early 90's when I was 3 or 4 IIRC.....Boy would I like another one of those.

The radio that started me collecting was my Grandpa's 1963 Zenith AM/FM...Still works, and now it's mine.

I've also got a 1918 GE brass blade fan that still works and was from a relative of my grandparrents.....Those fans are just plain IMMORTAL especially if oiled from time to time....Also saved from oblivion a 40's GE that was my grandpa's work shop fan.

My Grandparrents on mom's side saved a lot of good stuff (and a lot of stuff in general), and I was lucky enough to be around at the right times to get and save some of the good stuff....
