the "B" model is on the left, the "A" on the right.
Crosley also produced a TV set using the 30BP4 CRT. (not mine)

The same guy that had the 30" Dumont, had a Crosley 30" set. He sold it to a tavern keeper as a novelty. He referred my name to the people that bought it.
It was a Frankenset! Marked on the back was a notice, "There is an Admiral chassis in this Crosley cabinet! Naturally, there was a britener on the rebuilt CRT.
The Admiral chassis came from one of the first 27" Admirals, CA 1953.
