remember the smell of a new television back then

now a days when you buy a set you take it home plug in it, and its just like that set had been there for 5 years( by the way may be all the life you get out of one of these thro-away wonders) i remember back in 1968 when i started working in a rca dealership, you could walk on the show room floor and almost get the same sensation you get when you buy a new car, the sets had a very unique and fresh smell, because of the wood cabinets, and the heat generated from all the tubes burning in. wish they could put that in a spray can
