Found a stand!
Not something I'd normally bother with but it's kind of neat looking, no doubt the word "Deco" would apply on eBay.
![]() I thought it was some kind of kids chair at first but then i noticed the wheels. It's probably deep enough for a color set but this Zenith fits nicely on it. |

Though not a collector (yet), I picked up a 1949 Arvin console tv from a friend. It doesn't work, but my father is optimistic he can get it going (old tube tv guy). Its in pretty good shape for 60+ years. I've thought about refinishing the cabinet, but probably won't. Its a 12" round set. Don't know how much the old Arvin sets are worth (don't see many). I paid $5 from a friend for it and he paid less than that. What's neat is I live in the town this was made in. In fact, it was purchased at a flea market in one of the older Arvin factories, I think where they had a TV line... talk about coming full circle.
If I get approval from domestic management (wife that doesn't understand...), I'm trying to aquire a newer Arvin table top model (looks like about a 19" square tube) that I think does work.
