Great photo of some of the earliest post-war TV offerings.
The most desirable one there, although a real bare-bones cheap set, is the Viewtone on the far right. Easily valued in the low thousands. Just a few of them are known to exist. The next rare one is the Remington console. It's hard to see in the pic, but it's a very impressive, high-quality pre-war-looking console. I recall hearing of one in existence in all my years. The angled-front Dumont console is very pre-war-like too and quite rare and unusual. Lastly, the Stewart-Warner console is one of the more uncommon of the small early console TV's.
