Finding a barn full of old TV sets like this would be a dream come true...But in these neck of the woods, the chances are very slim, but one can always dream, but you never know whats around the corner......

Crts were tested, sets were inspected and anything good or worth saving is here safe with me.
I have close to 100 of them here at home. 4 other collectors hauled off tons too. All round tube color stuff was saved,

The copper scrappers and twekers recycled what was left.

This stash may be gone but there are still plenty out there. Its all what they are worth to you and what you are willing to do to get them. I made several trips and spent thousands of dollars, I drove over 15,000 miles by myself. Some posts I read people are not even willing to drive 100 miles to get one off craigslist.

That's totally AWESOME news, glad to know everything of real value has been saved!!! Was there any real rare non-RCA roundies of the 50s era and any experimental sets??? And that TV at 0:56 to 1:15 in your video, is that a 1956 RCA CTC-5?
