What RCA/Thomson did you contact?
1) I was under the impression that RCA only exists as a product brand for foreign-made miscellany; they certainly do not make these CRTs any more.
2) This seems to be an abominable lawyers' over-reaction to fair use of historical material for educational purposes. You should have asked if they could supply a copy for a price - I'd bet they cannot.
3) As I do for everything I post, I will remove it if requested by the copyright holder, but in this case, again, I would argue that it comes under fair use.
