Maybe a 1951 Muntz like this one but the knobs are different?

Meck made some real plain looking sets like that.

Here's another one from the Net. It looks like a large asymmetrically styled late '40's Silvertone tabletop with an add-on filtering screen placed over the TV screen:

Wow, they actually made the image on the CRT B&W! Attention to detail!

It looks like an Admiral.
I have the same Zenith porthole set shown on the Perry Mason photo; I restored it about 20 years ago. Had to replace 36 black beauties! Last edited by Tim Tress; 09-07-2019 at 10:06 AM. |

Not a photo... but...
Anyone grow up in the 80's remember Information Society? They were popular for the tune "Pure Energy" that featured audio clips of Mr. Spock and Doctor McCoy.
Well, they also had a song called "Repetition". The music video for this song has a pile of TV's in it... even a roundie or two. Have a look... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGp4CEkl7Ns

I actually liked that song. I thought it was cool because I was a big Star Trek TOS fan.

Gracie Fields 1952
The Philips 1400A she is beside was the first television that my parents bought. I still have the chassis and optics but not the cabinet. The Philips projection system was marketed in the US as Protelgram. Given the apparently high level of lighting in the photo it's surprising that we can actually see an image on the screen.
The way they moulded the correction lens is interesting see: https://americanradiohistory.com/Arc...7.pdf#page=351 Peter

Thanks. I never knew that the correction plate was made of gelatin.
