Meet my new sweetheart!

[veg-o-matic]

I call her Laura, after Laura Petrie, my favorite 60's brunette.
Got this primo Zenith from Doug Harland via our friends at ebay. After like four months of false starts and rude movers
( Plycon Van Lines),
it finally arrived last week, safe and sound. So safe and sound, in fact, that all I had to do was plug 'er in and turn 'er on! And Doug, a true gentleman, was super through the whole ordeal. By the way, it cost 211 bucks for shipping from Chicago to Baltimore, plus another 40 or so bucks for a custom carton. Worth it? You bet!
Naturally, I've been spending as much time as possible watching her. What is it about the colors on these vintage sets that makes everything look so different? It's like watching TV in color for the first time all over again!
