There is a beautiful mid 60's Zenith Roundie Console in working condition
on E-bay. If it were in my state it would be mine!
Search Zenith Console, or Older Walnut Color TV.

I wish this one were closer to me, it's the one Zenith roundie I'd really like to have.

outta my range, looks very nice.

Very dim. very nice set

Well.. I bid on it. I'm in Omaha, so it's at least in the same state, altho a 300 mile round-trip. Fingers crossed!

great, hope you get it and not some fish bowler..

That's a real sweety and a sweet deal too. I guess it's a '63 model. Nice to find an honest seller. I bet it has nice sound with that lower speaker option.

That's a '64 model, I hope you get it Jamie! That one's worth the 300mi. round trip for. That cabinet don't come along often, at least around here.

I've only seen one other Zenith roundie in an upright cabinet. I hope you get it. It looks like it might have the 25MC33 chassis in it. The lack of UHF is no longer a problem when hooked to a converter box. That is a very nice set, well worth saving.

I have one a LOT like that.


Mine is the 25MC30 chassis. pretty good cabinet cndition. The tube "woke up" pretty nicely. Come on now, wiht nice sound noise and snow. Mine has a 5"x7" speaker under the picture tube area.Mine DOES have uhf.

Mine was an "antique mall" find, about 7 miles from here--$38, back in Apri or so.

The 25LC30... wasn't that like their 3rd color chassis? Good luck getting it jamie... those verticle cabinets are neat (and you can line more in a row against the wall) :D

that is my dream set.zenith roundie with a vertical cabinet.way too far to go for it but i would cherish this one if mine.definately my favorite roundie.maybe a nice ctc11 in a vertical cabinet?do you hear me,bryan?

I wish my Zenith roundie were in a vertical cabinet. It would make it easier to watch in bed.:D

No Cateracts either! That early of a model Zenith most likely would have a 21FBP in it. And it's got that darker green bezel color further dating it as an earlier model.

If I could justify a 20+ hour round trip that would be the Zenith for me! I've always been kinda fond of those upright cabinets too. Reminiscent of a 50's cabinet with 60's technology!

I know that RCA did this also at least up through the CTC-16 series. Doug had posted photos of his RCA and in my High School Electronics class one of the shop teachers brought in his early 16 series to be looked at.

That Zenith is pretty!

Oh Oh! Bidding war. I hope it's not someone who wants to make a fish-tank.
If it's someone on here, let me know, otherwise the bidding is gonne get alot higher.

It's me. I came across the tv before I came across this thread. I had been looking for this one for a while and got excited when I saw it. I had one like this back in the 80's and like an idiot, let it go. :no:

Couldn't stand to let it become a fishtank (as is a suggestion on this or one of this guy's auctions) so I bid high.

Didn't intend to create a bidding war. Just wanted to, and intend to, bring her home and never let her go.

I bid again, before I saw your post.
If you love the set, go for it.
I won't continue to bid on it. I love the set as well, and I had one in the 80's, but I probably wouldn't have bid on it, had it not been in my state.
Treat it well if you end up getting it! Hopefully another bidder doesn't jump in at the last minute.

Like I said...as long as ONE of "US" gets the set...it does not really matter that much to me that I cannot. I have one JUST like it anyway...only a year newer. It looks ALMOST the same---inside and out. A couple of differnet tube types and mine has UHF--and that is about all of the difference.

Did anyone see the system 3 rectangular just under the much better roundie for $700.00 ??
