I got some new pictures of my RCA Brandywine Console Television I got in the Summer of 2006; she is still going strong. She is a very lovely and very large solid cherry or antiqued Maple RCA 1967 or 1968 Victor Television Console with a build in turntable and AM & FM Stereo System. I have been told that it is a Mark I Deluxe Home Entertainment Center HH-852 (The Brandywine). with scalloped gallery and bracket feet; this is a Colonial lowboy with an authentic replica Federal Period Design. She is Antiqued Colonial Maple on selected hardwoods. It is made with selected hardwoods, and lids and top veneers are on reinforced wood fiber. I really need to put her somewhere special so I can play my records and use the radio that is now covered by two other consoles. So much to save so little time and space. Does anyone have a model like this and have any history on the consoles made by RCA of this time period?

I think the control panel is the coolest I have ever seen.

I like the glossy texture and finish of the Picture tube it is very well made. http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/7343/rca1967tvconsolethebran.jpg (http://img163.imageshack.us/i/rca1967tvconsolethebran.jpg/)
As I stated in the Antique Radio Forum, we have to save these old girls because they are not going to be anymore made.
