Early Australian Astor B&W set
This set is at a local auction house, was passed in at the last antique sale.
Never seen one like this before. The swivel base appears to be original to the set. The power cable is mounted to the back cover, which I've never seen on an Australian set before.
It's a 17 inch with a 17CGP4 CRT and looks a lot more "American" than other more common Australian B&W sets.
I'm not looking for such a big project right now, so I'm not picking this one up. I would have grabbed it anyway and passed it on had the owner not wanted so much for it (AU$150, not that I think it's that far out of line for such a rare set).
Thought it was worth posting the pics though.
