A pal of mine spotted this. Tatty but restorable.

Cabinet only. No "guts" lying in the back room. He asked.

Is that for a 7? I like that style better than the one I have now, looks in better shape also, too bad it's so far away.

It uses the exact same hardware as my '9, so that would be my first guess. I guess it would be something like the "Boswell" w/ legs?

More "Eames Era" looking than my "Anderson" model for sure.

I'm curious-why do some roundies (like this one) have a pane of safety glass on them? Wasn't the bonded-safety glass picture tube enough?

Forgot to mention the price: $50.

This set was made before bonded glass tubes came out. It should have a 21CYP22 in it or at least a replacement 21FBP22 which is also an un-bonded tube. The 21FJP22 was the first bonded tube and came into play in the early '60s.

Hmm, when I saw this auction for a CTC7A chassis, I thought, "why not put two and two together?"

Then I noticed that the chassis has knobs for the front, not the side of the cabinet.
