Haha, just saw this on ebay and posted it in the classifieds. 1961 would make it a CTC11 from what I know... but the bezel on the front doesn't look CTC11. The tuner looks like my CTC10.

The cabinet is identical (but with different trim and finish) to my CTC10 Wynnwood.
Ed Reitans site identifies it as a CTC9.

I am pretty sure that is the exact model that was in the white house oval
office, installed by Eisenhour and was there thru Johnson. It can be seen
in a few photos of Kennedy in the office.

Maybe the model is another type. The seller doesn't write the model, so I've seen it on a RCA ad.
However, it is a right TV set for a president!

This is a CTC-10 Wynnewood. They came in mahogany, ebony, and walnut finishes according to Ed Reitan's website. At this past ETF convention I sold a CTC-10 Wynnewood that looked identical to this. It may in fact be that set...

Certainly the eBay listing misidentifies the set as a New Vista CTC11. The RCA-developed nuvistor (6CW4) appeared first in 1961 RCA color sets with the 'New Vista' logo clearly present within the 'COLOR' diffraction-grating plaque.

The seller emailed me that it's a model 211CDR936 on the sets back cover. My RCA field service manual says it should have CTC-10E chassis. However they don't call out name for that model number.

And the picture for a CTC-10 Series shown on page 42 of the same manual is identified as a "Wynnewood" ... looks like the ebony version... Very cool set!
