Ah, I've seen lots of info on the rear projection TVs of the 40s and 50s. The Norelco system I've seen lots of ads for it towards the back of old magazines, but never actually photos of a nice domestic installation. A 3x4 foot image most certainly qualifies as big screen - have you ever seen on in operation? That would be wonderful to involve a real RCA 630 in a home theater experience that way.

Old_TV_Nut - thank you for the link to photos! I had a look at the projection TVs, but How about that Sylvania Dualette console - WOW, that thing is prettier than a Predicta!

I've seen protelgrams in home use in pictures in 50s electronics magazines.

I have 2 protelgram add on units. One NOS/NIB one beat to crap...I plan to get one going eventually. I have so many projects and so little time. One day if I can get 3 beat examples I hope to build a color protelgram like the home made one the ETF has.

Be sure to post lots of pics if you get it going. I'm very curious how well they perform.

This is a good time for a plug for the Early Television Foundation. If you haven't been there, you should add it to your bucket list.
