man and I thought you meant color roundie.
Right over the hill about 30 mins away, but I don't have the $$$ nor the space for even a tabletop like that. Plus, I suspect that it will go for quite abit more than its current price.

IIRC, Zenith had the "Giant Circle" screen til '51...a fella I know has a 10" 1948 model,no paricular plans for it, but it was his wife's, & she doesn't want to sell. <Whimper...>

I've been watching this one closely for a few days now. I've been wanting one of these since I first saw one a few years ago. But the last few times a porthole set came up for sale around here, I didn't have the money. But I sold most of my stash of Corvette parts last summer, so I do now.
 The same seller also has an RCA 8TS30 up for sale.

I have, in the attic, a complete chassis w/crt which I think came out of this model or very similiar. (if I had been an hour earlier to the flea market I would have got the whole set-someone else just wanted an aquarium cabinet so they left the chassis-grrrr!) Anyway, this is a later model, I have one (complete) from 48 or 49 and it uses a separate power supply chassis and the tuner is on the opposite side.

This thing just went way out of my price range. $632
 The last one that was around here on e-bay went for around $180. Is there some reason why this model is more valuable, or is everyone else as suprised about this as I am? Oh well, I might bid on that 8TS30 instead if it doesn't go too high.--It's up to $842 now!

I think it's great for us to try to determine if someone's a
fake bidder but even if one is the other high bidder gives us reason to believe the interest in these old TV's is on the rise.
I did not know such a set could command such a price but I shouldn't be surprised as I have learned many people will pay crazy prices if they want something.
