This is prob why it was replaced with a new one in 1973.
No telling what condition it's in now, won't know till I pick it up on Saturday.  |
It may have been the pot equivalent of the sepia switch om my old airline console. The idea was that on B&W films and TV shows older viewers that watched film before TV existed may prefer the look of sepia monochrome film stock and wish for a way that their TV could duplicate it...It looks stupid on color shows but I can see why some people might like it on monochrome shows.
