TV during World War II

[Phil Nelson]

I would love to hear from such people, too, but I believe there was almost nothing to watch . . . and nothing to watch it on. That ad is future-oriented, talking about the "promise of television," etc.

Since no consumer TVs were made during the war, those few lucky viewers watching very limited broadcasts must have been using pre-war sets. Perhaps they would have been TV company executives or engineers, experimenters, or wealthy "early adopters."
