Anyone familiar with JC Penney know what TV this is?

There could be an OEM equivalent model, like maybe a Mitsubishi or Sanyo or some other common OEM brand from that time that reused designed between contracts, but you would be asking people to do some major pre-internet cross-referencing mental gymnastics to actually be able to pick that out. For all intents and purposes, it's exactly as you see it in the advert.

Hi and thank you. Yeah I've been searching the internet the last few days trying to match something close to the picture. I haven't found anything so far. I was just posting here to see if anyone may recognize it. It's a nice looking setup from back then.

Mitsubishi, Hitachi, Goldstar and Samsung did a lot of OEMs for US department stores at that time. They would sometimes use multiple manufacturers across a product line, and the cases would look outwardly similar.

Best way to find out who might be under the hood is to open the case.
