Easy enough to see "Zenith" on that one; 1952 model or thereabouts?

Pretty hard for that to fall into the water. Doesn't even look like it was on, probably not plugged in either. At least it wasn't a toaster.

Oh you mean the TV. I'm thinking if she's holding a glass in the pool that is very dangerous. Hopefully it's plastic.

I wonder if she'll get in trouble for taking her chair into the pool?

There is a picture I have seen (that was maybe even posted in this topic!), that shows a person watching a Sentinel 400TV 7-inch portable set-on the edge of a bathtub!

Nope, that TV was a run-of-the-mill upright 50s console that was well away from the tub.

That's the name that I remember as well, but I just found some of his posts and there is *no* avatar showing at all. He hasn't posted for over a month, hope he is ok!
