My paternal grandparents had a Zenith color set. VERY BIG deal in the mid 60s. Papaw Fritz took it to his office, where it stayed for a long time. He gave it to the guy who cleaned the offices -& chauffeured my granny around. He gave it back to me, some day I intend to take it to see Terry...It is one of those Zeniths that has a wood grained vinyl/metal cabinet. I remember it having a pretty decent picture-No cable back then- & it wasn't run to death..I had a maternal cousin/ uncle who had a color set that was in a light olive green metal case about the same time. Pretty sure it was a Zenith too. My family was a bunch of CHEAP bstrds-They always bought lowline sets.
