Other collectors may not agree with me on this, but I think that set is somewhat rarer than the 12" posted by Banderson. The 14k1 uses one of the first series of rectangular CRTs. These were produced by Hytron and others in the very early 50s. A 14",16" and perhaps 19" and/or 20" sizes were made. The shape of these early rectangular tubes was unique, with very flat sides and fairly sharply rounded corners. By 1953 (or so) sets mostly used the more familiar 17" and 21" CRTs with bulged out sides and more rounded corners. The early square corner tubes had a very short run, and are seldom seen today.
