Old photos of TV's

[Ampico-kid]

While going through the family photo album I came across a few pictures that I thought might be of interest to the "gang" here on AK.

The first picture is of yours truly on my Confirmation Day, April 21, 1964. The Admiral TV set prominently included in the photo was originally purchased by my parents approx. 1954. It served us well for quite some time, but I do remember a number of service calls over the years.

In just 7 short months after that first picture was taken my Dad bought our first color set, a Zenith Roundie with a 25MC33 chassis (second picture). It was a great set with only one service call that I remember during it's time with us. Also included in the picture is our Dachshund named Hans Von Schmutzelpootz sitting up on his haunches and waiting for a treat.

Sadly both sets were eventually disguarded and sent to the local Salvation Army.
