I've got the leatherette portable, and wood table model versions, and had the metal cabinet version (sold because the cabinet wasn't great and it had a vexing low contrast issue.

These were designed by Raymond Lowe which explains why they look so cool.

You're right about halicrafters TVs being cheap and oddly built...A year ago combing through Sam's duplicates I came across the Sam's for a 16" halicrafters that basically was one of these with the 7" CRT replaced with a speaker, reworked deflection circuits and the CRT in a separate cabinet....It was an odd enough duck that if I'd posted about it back on the 1st you'd think I made it up.
