How may temple TVs out there?

Pictures below show a pair of my temple tvs. There are 2 other temples on online museums and 2 on individual web sites out there. I saw 3 sell on ebay in the last two years. Two of the ebay Temples were new finds. I bought one of them. I know of another one owned by a collector and another in 1970s TV price guide making 10 total?

I know of 12, but there are probably more.

Another One

Here is my Temple....alas, the magnifier is broken. Anybody have a spare they would like to trade/sell? The dimensions of the original magnifier (including flange) is 11" X 9 1/4". Without the flange, it is 10" X 8"

I don't know if this set is accounted for on either of the mentioned lists.

I see something that looks like a goldfish in that photo also.

I came across one of these sets at a local flea market a few years ago. The seller had no price on it so I asked "How much?" The reply was "Eight-Fifty." I started to ask for clarification when he said "Eight hundred and fifty dollars." I walked away laughing. It was also kind of amusing because the set was sitting on his old worn out flatbed truck that wasn't worth anywhere near his asking price for the TV.

You could fill the magnfier with water and put a fish in it... then you would have an aquarium TV and keep the original TV at the same time.
