I've got one of those in my parent's shop (white and turquoise) if anyone wants it.... located in Oregon. At last count I had 7 TVs in the room upstairs and 2 more in the garage waiting for me, I don't even have room to get this from my parent's place!

I really want on of the metal Philco Portables that curves down in the back but they never seem to show up close by or in good shape.

Thanks for posting the link. I bought it. Family had one exactly like this when I was 9. Same color too and with UHF. Been looking for this exact set a long time. I draged it to grade school so my 3rd grade class could watch the Milwaukee Braves win the 1957 world series. This set has a lot of memories for me. I remember watching 3 Stooges and Shirley Temple movies on it and also Saturday night horor movies with Dr. Cadaverino. I sure hope it gets here in one piece.

You see a lot of the GE/Hotpoint sets of this era, but this Philco is not seen very often.
