I think I would have them elaborate a bit on the "kit gloves" treatment
that thing underwent to bust two of the legs off. You could ask them if
there was a suspicious "kaboom" or "hissing" sound that eminated from the
cabinet during the treatment in question. Or maybe ask if there's a big
funny spot on the front of the tube that wasn't there when the set had
all of its legs.

Looks like a CTC15. That was the last year RCA sold chassis to others. Not a clone, but a real RCA.

I hear you John, but at this point, I don't have room for this set. Too many big consoles and combos already hogging what little room I have available. I'm afraid I'll have to pass on this one. Hopefully one of you guys will be able to rescue this old timer.

Maybe someone can make some arrangements with you, if it's easy for you to get. Even if it's not in the best of shape it may be worth parting. We can't save them all but the CRT's need saved if possible!

Look very closely at the back cover. It's not a Sylvania...

It's a SILVERTONE.
