These are all self contained...

These need an external turntable to complete.

Not a lot but too many.
From Left to right in the photo's.

A Philco 1280, I've never seen another one of this model, it's huge and very, very heavy, I saved it because the cabinet was too beautiful to let it go to waste.

An early-mid 60's Admiral, immaculate condition, $5.00 at auction, CRT is shot but everything works on it including the record changer.

A Curtis Mathis single wide, this rivals the Philco for sheer bulk, made of really good particle board with real veneer over it, weight? no man can say.
The little 7" set on top of the CM to the right is also a full Combo, 45 player, Radio and TV.

An unusual Truetone (Raytheon chassis) with a tilt out CRT, I need to get busy and fix this one.

And the last one isn't even a TV but a big Westinghouse Radio/Phono combo from 1948, Top of the line for that year as far as I can tell, I have a couple Westinghouse TV's sitting on top of it.

One more, not a full combo but it has a radio built in and a jack for a phono attachment.

This 16" (16AP4 so it's also deep) RCA dwarfs your average 21" Console of the 50's, it's enormous!
The MSRP for this set was $695.00 in 1949!

My Avatar is from this set.
