I have two Grundig 19" color table models, made for the US market. Both sets have the protruding CRT's. They're Toshiba CRT's.

V.S. 54-612, the 2nd tv set assambled in Romania (it's an 1961 set, not '50's one): https://www.olx.ro/oferta/televizor-...tml#3228973c56
The compoments are French ("Thomson" I think).
V.S. = Video Super
54 = diagonal (in centimeters; 54 c.m. = 21")
61 = year 1961
2 = model 2 from year 1961 (in 1961 we assambled the 1st tv's)
So video super, 54 c.m.s. (21") diagonal, model 2 from year 1961.
This formula of tv models was used up untill 1963 or 1964.

By the way, V.S. 43-611 (metal case), V.S. 54-612 and V.S. 43-613, all with French compoments are one of the most rare tv sets in Romania (never ever seen an VS 43-613).
