Saw this today at the Flea Market - RCA Victor TV

[Wigwam Jones]

Saw this today at the Raleigh, NC flea market that they hold every weekend at the state fairgrounds. The seller was packing up to go - wanted a quick $40 for it. Could only claim that 'it's got tubes inside' - no idea of condition. The back appeared to have been unmolested. He really didn't like the idea of me taking this photo, but I've gotten used to that and just ignored him.

I have never purchased an old TeeVee, but I have to admit, the idea intrigues me. And my home was built in 1923, it would fit right in! Of course, the WAF might not be so high...might take some work there.

So, I passed on buying this (for now). I would need MUCH reassurance from those here who have done this sort of thing before - if this is good idea or not.

Anyway, thoughts on this TeeVee? Seller claimed that by the time he returns next week, the set will be sold, but sure, sure. Maybe yes, maybe no.

All comments appreciated?

Best,
