16" Emerson Roundie.

I just got back with this set, a CL find, I've seen these on eBay before but I thought they were a 12" set.

Anyone know the model number of this one, it's out in the Van and I don't feel like going out there and pulling the back off again to find it.

Seller was asking $89 for it but I checked the CRT and it's really really bad.

Bumping the heater didn't budge the needle at all, also he had plugged it in, before I got there and something smoked, I could smell it in the house as soon as I walked in (and also in the Van all the way home, p.u.) hopefully a resistor and not the transformer, which was still warm when I arrived.
Anyhow I got it for $25, hopefully I can find a 16GP4 metal tube for it someday, the set is complete with all the knobs and the back at least.

It's pretty compact for a 16" Tabletop, I wonder if Ingraham had a hand in the cabinet design, I know Emerson had a few Radios with Ingraham cabinets and possibly one 10" TV set.

The cabinet is solid but the finish is shot, also the thick veneer behind the knobs is torn up on one end, an easy fix if I ever get around to doing it.
