Right you are wv! You should change your handle to wvsez. Here is the picture from Ed Reitan's fine color TV history site.

I have the 'Seville' model, If I take the undercarriage off it, it becomes the tabletop CTC-4 called the 'Havilland'. Wow, I have the first model RCA tabletop color TV in my collection! I did not realize this.

You are also correct about the CTC-5 being 1956.
