I've just had a home made 1956 color projection set donated to the museum. It uses three Norelco Protelgram assemblies. I have been told that there was a magazine article about that time that gave instructions for building it. Anyone remember the article, or know what magazine and issue it was in?

Hi Steve:

I have a copy of that article. It was in the December 1954 and January 1955 issues of Radio and Television News. The same article was also reprinted in the 1957 edition of Color Television (that magazine picturing many sets on the cover all showing Lucille Ball). I can send you a copy if you'd like.

Steve,

Great addition to the museum! I have that magazine and the article. I will have to try to find it and make copies for you. I hope you aren't in a rush. I haven't had wheels for a while and anything involving off-property has been hampered severely around here.
