I watched Rocky last night on one of our few GOOD uhf channels... (Good meaning it isn't all infomercials and low-ratings 90s sit-coms)

Anyways, the scene where Rocky is punching sides of beef for a TV reporter* is watched by Apollo Creed's trainer on a '74 Chromacolor like this one:

Of course, Apollo blows it off. :nono:

*The TV reporter was the real-life Diana Lewis, practically a Detroit TV news fixture.

I thought you'd found another chromacolor.

My TV hunting's been shut down by the snow, probably for the forseeable future.

How would you like to own this set? Its available for sale for the high price of $50, which is what I had to pay for the thing. Its all fixed up too, works perfect now.

Awesome tv. looking at this photo makes me actually visualize the scene from Rocky. (have the entire collection on dvd!) I would definitely buy it, but distance ruins it for me.

I would love to have it actually, but as always, the issue is space.
