I'm picking up this nice 1954 RCA this week
I was offered this set for $50. Looks to be in wonderful shape. Don't know if it works but is has had a CRT replacement in 1964 by Home Appliance(still in business). I'll keep you posted when I pick it up

That looks to be in really nice condition.

I'm curious what chassis this one has?

Lucky thing, that set has a glass CRT. That's the only reason the original CRT lasted ten years. Probably the TOTL model that year. Very well kept and a great find.

That TV really is nice. Tell us a little about it - did you buy it from the original owner? Estate sale? Its visually stunning.
