I just got home. Not all the Ed Reitan exotica sold, but all four color-wheel
sets (including the kit) did, at good prices. Not all the CT-100s
(some with bad CRTs) sold. The RCA prototype didn't
get to the $35,000 reserve but got to $20,000 or perhaps
22,000, it was not clear.

Two of the museum's working color wheel sets died
during the convention (the CBS adaptor and the DuMont).
The ColorTel NTSC convertor worked but its set had bad
horizontal sync, while the other convertor next to it
had a working set but a broken wheel belt.
Their CT-100 got seriously ill. The Westinghouse
15GP22 set was however looking absolutely stellar. Their
new military Iconoscope camera worked flawlessly.

My CT-100 was one of the four for sale. It sold and is going to the Indiana State Museum in Indianapolis for their collection. It will have a good home and a better place for the future. Three of the four available did sell. The auction of the Reitan collection was a spectacular success with bidders stepping up to buy and the silent auction was well sold as well. It was a very good weekend for sales and for the future of the museum.

I bid to $1200 on it, I think it went for $1600. You couldn't find a a cleaner set.

PS - you guys sure worked my ass off . But I was glad to help!!!
A big thanks to Tim and everyone who helped get this massive auction ready on Friday and Saturday! It would have been nearly impossible without everyones help.
