1954 GE 15" Color TV Photos and a plea for Help

This is a set that sort of dominates the room. Quite a collection you've got there-thanks for sharing!

I checked on the tube, of course, and nothing here. I did look in my tube sub book, which I think might be from the early 70s? Anyway, the 6BU5 is listed, but no subs. I'll have to dig through the knobs over the weekend if nobody else finds it. Doesn't look familiar but you never know.

John, that set is incredible! Is the 15GP22 good?

I don't think I hav any knobs like that but I'll look.
You probably have the only set ever made so it may be tough to find knobs, unless they are the same as some B&W model.
What's the hole in the center for?

Eric, The CRT is good! The 6BU5 seems to be the HV Regulator that time forgot. I suspect it was more expensive than the competing 6BD4/6BK4.

The hole in the center is wher the GE escutcheon-emblem thingy goes (see the GE_Bulletin.jpg).
