1950 Zenth Porthole

[KOGO600]

My boss at work recently gave me a 1950 Zenith Porthole. I have been looking for one like it for years. Does anyone know what model it is and what the name is ??

Model numbers are often shown on the back cover or on a paper label inside the back.

You have a VERY GOOD Boss !

Zenith had names for each of these sets and I am trying to find out what the name of it is?

And yes I have a really great boss!! The first good boss Ive had in 3 years!

There is a site that I believe is called "TV history" or "radio museum" that has pistures and model numbers for many makes of TV, and they have the model numbers and cabinet names of many Zenith porthole sets.

That's a cool set, Kogo. I'm not big on consoles, but that's worth preserving.

But, don't plug it in or lift a wrench unless you know what you're doing...
