coffee table RCA

I would like to have one of the coffe table sets. They just seem to be too far away. Hope somebody here gets this set.

That's a neat set. I'd want one in better shape though.

It seems when the 110 degree CRTs came in, you saw a lot of experiments in TV packaging.

Of course, whatever hapens if you spill something into it, etc etc etc

Still looking for that RCA one for their new 'big color' TVs from about 1956 with the singing and dancing girls in gowns caressing the sets. Seen bits and pieces of it on some shows but not the whole thing.

Those sets sure are unique. This one sounds like it has potential if he's getting a fuzzy pic and good sound. Doesn't Cory have two of these sets???

Here's a pic of the super-secret prototype stereo version that followed soon afterwards.
