Interesting to see what tv goes for. Costly to restore even if someone has a big box of used tubes to replace scavenged ones. Bidders have good 15" CRT tubes?? That picture tube is a sticking point, is front mask damaged with missing safety glass? A true rainy day project, I guess some might bid as a display piece only? Are the missing knobs in any photos to verify ALL correct orginal knobs are still there? Any closeups of flyback to show possible visible status??????? Tubes can be removed from TV service shop, ---- a shorted part years ago that may have caused catastrophic damage. I know in RCA sets, the Horiz Output gets shorted out occassionally. I can see this as the reason such an expensive set can be stripped of its tubes and being removed from service, being used as a parts set only. I would only bid as such.
