Old_TV_Nut - thank you for the link to photos! I had a look at the projection TVs, but How about that Sylvania Dualette console - WOW, that thing is prettier than a Predicta!
This is a good time for a plug for the Early Television Foundation. If you haven't been there, you should add it to your bucket list.
