Any guesses about how the CRT is mounted ? I don't see anything attached to the corner mount holes. At least it is a working TV and not a fish tank or cat box...

I wonder if this is a genuine Posterization? For what it is, it looks very well done.

The guy that converted it didn't care if it had any ventilation with that solid back cover. Even solid state stuff needs air, and there's a CRT, of course. Wait: are those vents on top or is one of them the speaker?

One does have a speaker, the other is a vent. Someone used mine for an ashtray

DOUBLE YUK! But the more I look at it, the more likely that seems. At first I thought I saw custom made formed spacers above and below the crt, that might be bonded to the t-band then screwed through the bottom of the cabinet and, perhaps attached to some features at the top of the cabinet, such as the the "ribs" that are across the top (and sides as well). But I think that my "spacers" are just light reflections from the front of the cabinet.

Now that I look at it again it appears that they slotted the ribs on tob and that the corner of the mounting tab fits into it.
