I think with these sets, Westinghouse certainly out-did RCA on the cabinet style!

Does anyone know what TV stations were in British Columbia back when this set was new?

James,

There was no television broadcasting in B.C. in 1939-40 when that Westy was introduced for sale. Doubt that experimental TV existed anywhere in the Northwest U.S. that might have been viewed in B.C. I agree that is a much more stylish cabinet then the RCA Victor TRK-12.
