I was aware of that, plus the fact that at least some of those 23" sets had originally been classified as 25" before an FTC(?) ruling regarding visible size. I was wondering more about smaller tabletop/portable sets like this one. When I was growing up in the '80s and '90s, most of the smaller tabletop color sets were available as 5", 13" and 19", and I don't recall seeing many sets in between, yet
that ad shows 15", 16" and 17" sets as well. I'm wondering when the (relatively) odd portable sizes went away, and things became more homogenized.

Very interesting! Can't say I've seen one of those before. I'm guessing the pin connector which came with the AN-14 on this set got broken at some point, and the owner removed it and stripped the ends of the twin-lead.
