It's amazing how clueless people are about taking pictures. He/She has focused on the cheap Korean wall clock instead of the television. Request they get down at eye level with the TV and try again. Reminds me of people who move 30' away to take a picture of two people. :rolleyes:

Remember when that guy was trying to sell his kitchen table, and the autofocus on the camera got the mirror in the background, which showed him naked? PRICELESS!!

Nice looking old book on top. Family Bible maybe? Neat to have one of those in the family.

It looks like a late 60's Admiral, from just the cabinet. It's identical to the second color set my folks bought in '69 after a lot of trouble with a ctc 10.

The controls look very similar to what Sylvania was using circa 1970.

Well, I said GE because it looks like their logo below the control panel.

I'm thinkin' more of a LATE Seventies/early Eighties set, because of how "Squared" off the CRT is..

I wouldn't go too far off how squared off the CRT is. My Samsung is a bit more rounded than that, and it's mid 80's.

All 13 & 19" models have the rounded corners, even sets built in the later 2000's. Except Sony. :yes:

I think it's a mid-70s Japanese set, possibly rebranded for a chain store. I say Sharp made it. They had a lot of sets with a door covering all the controls, and that set looks like it has one; either open or missing.

Does not look like the GE logo to me, looks more like the name of the controls possibly.

Some Sears sets had the controls covered by a door like that. I just got a early '70s Warwick built console with the controls like this. I have a '66 Silvertone console with the controls arranged in this way as well.

So it looks like the door is missing. Hmmm. Oh well. I wasn't able to get it anyways :tears:.
