I remember around 1974 - 75 my dad bought a new Sears- Silvertone 25" color TV, it was the very last tube set sold in our local Sears store. A plain set, just a metal cabinet with painted on woodgrain. What a piece of junk it was, a year or so in the thermister went up in smoke, and while I had the chassis out I noticed it came new with a REBUILT CRT!

It was definitely not Japanese built, probably a Warwick. 4 or 5 tubes on the chassis and series strung.
