A little further down on the link posted above by Banderson is a very unusual set, that unfortunately has been modified with the installation of a flat panel screen... anybody have one of these in original condition?

I don't know what an unmodified one would go for, but with a flat screen!? I can't see it selling unless he's willing to compromise quite a bit.

This says the Keracolor company was revived a few years ago, selling new TVs in cases made from the original molds.

Kinda like the new "Predictas," I guess. No idea whether they're currently in business. The URL http://www.keracolor.com/ produces an error message.

Well, if he threw in a bright yellow Twin cam Lotus Europa (with or without the "keracolor" logo) I might be tempted

Wow - those Keracolors are wild !

They've listed a few more sets including this one. What the heck is it ? An Admiral 19A11 in a homebrew cabinet or maybe a prototype ?

That last one has a more modern speaker than the era of the set, and the rear knobs aren't original (didn't have any) and are more modern. Somebody did a pretty nice homemade job, though. But I thought the aluminum foil went on the rabbit ears, not as an aquadag sub...

On second thought, is that a dim trademark decal on the front under the tube?

I noticed that too - it's definitely an Admiral chassis and knobs.
My 19A15 has it's original shield, but it's missing on my 19A11. Maybe I'll be using some foil too

Probably, what this 7JP4 really needs is a nice mu-metal shield.

Three more sets popped up today. This must have been an impressive collection!

TraV-Ler 12-T

Garrod Vintage TV

Emerson 608 Console Wood Television Tilt-Out
