I simply stated that I am a collector of antique tv's. I asked them if they had any for sale. They sold me two upstairs. The color set , and a termite infested mid 50's bw RCA I stripped. They also had a ct-100 that they refused to sell. Sad. I found out who the second owner was later.
It was a business associate I used to know. She had that color set in the late 50's. She got rid of it to that very tv shop because it had many problems. But, the picture tube was still alive then. They wouldn't even take 4,000.00 for that set.
I may have the picture tube you need. Might be willing to trade it for something I'd die without.
I'll take pictures of the color set when I have it up, and running with some sort of watchable picture.
