Yes; that was in 1988... The CT-100 was in the room upstairs on the left in the fire picture. It had been recapped and was working. But the miracle of that fire (besides nobody being killed out of the 5 that were in the house), was that the room in the back downstairs where 90% of my TVs were was UNDAMAGED. The only sets lost were the CT-100, a Philco 7" bakelite. Sets that were damaged but salvagable were a Kaye-Halbert Normandy, a DuMont Royal Sovereign 30", and a Scott projection tabletop set.
