A CBS-Columbia 360 1954 color set (with 19VP22 CRT)... Dumped in a catch basin in Chatsworth, CA in about 1992. I had to pay off a guy who was in the process of dragging it to his van to get the mahogany wood off it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Miracle: Set was undamaged! It was missing the big wood cover below the doors, but I had one made for $100. TV is now in Dr. Dan's collection.

But another of us on this site, (remaining nameless unless he chooses to speak up), got an experimental 1937 RCA mirror lid RR-359 TV from out back of a gas station in Santa Monica, CA for $40! I bet nobody will top that luck!
