Kinda hard to sit appropriately in those old armless chairs from the 50's. My grandmother had chairs like the ones in the pic so theres all kind of photos of relatives sitting just like that in our photo albums
No Halolites though as my grandparents only had a 1955 RCA Victor portable that they used until the late 80's when they gave it to me when they bought their Sylvania Superset. Needless to say it didnt give them the same service as the old RCA as the Sylvania is in tv heaven and the RCA is still playing in my den.
