I started in '70 & we saw little from the 50's, usually
old folk had them. UHF was important & most sets
didnt have it til mandated in '64 so old stuff went
away fast.

Loved those sticks, saved time when the HV filament
wire was arcing. A pain to change on some sets........

Its a cool set that could tell some stories. In the states
when someone got an early set everyone would come
over to watch. They would stare at the Indian head test
pattern for hours waiting for a show.
