Michigan CTC5

Here's a nice example of a CTC5 in Michigan on eBay (no affiliation):

What are the chances that with a picture like this that the set hasn't been serviced recently? The seller seems to know what he's talking about, but mentions nothing of the sets service history.

That's the CTC-5 "Westcott" model with the Super series chassis. It looks to have a 21AXP22A picture tube, which was the original tube with this set. Nice bright picture and clean cabinet.

I wonder what else he has? Look around by the set, you can see radios and I think another tv. This one has obviously had work done, the picture is great!

I'm the high bidder for now

If it doesn't go for too much I'll drive up to Michigan and pick it up, Maybe that set along with my wescott ctc 5 can get married and have babies
