Seems like the Sears chassis no. 110.700 even corresponds to the Air King chassis 700. It appears they used that same chassis with slight modifications with every CRT size under the sun, including rectangular ones. Oh and you probably know it's basically the same Air King chassis in Sams 121 folder 3. |
Some Sears sets seemed to be regional. We never saw too many Sears sets built on the east coast or the west coast.
Most of the sets sold in the stores in the mid-west were built by Arvin or Warwick, with a few Stewart Warners thrown in!
There must've been some bad blood between Well Gardner and the Sears buyer, as I never saw a Sears set built by them.
