That's a real oddball...in a good way! Seems like a lot of sets up there in New England/the northeast, and that is natural, but there don't seem to be many collectors. At least I don't think we have many here on AK?

Weird Admiral Bakelite
This appears to be an Admiral Bakelite that has been painted, I'm guessing not by the factory?
The Bakelite might be nicely preserved under that paint... or a total mess? http://cgi.ebay.com/ADMIRAL-WOOD-CAS...QQcmdZViewItem |

Kingsley Oriental set
Interesting set, seems to use a 630 chassis with a 21" tube.

"Believed to be colored"
I know my avatar may suggest otherwise, but I've never had anything against "colored" televisions...

If this Westinghouse is a rectangular color set it's RARE!!
We need to find out for sure. Quote:

The Westinghouse rectangular color set can be very difficult to distinguish from their black & white sets of the same model year, as they look almost alike. This is set was apparently not made the same time as the 22" color set and really looks nothing like it.

The Westinghouse set can be seen here just past half-way down the page at Steve Dichter's wonderful site.

Actually, I had a blonde Westinghouse console once upon a time whose top-mounted control layout was virtually identical to the one on the color set, which the ebay set really doesn't have. The color set in the picture Dave A refers to is a dead ringer for my set which was most definitely black & white. What I'm saying is: be very careful using comparison to the picture on Steve D's site to identify a set you think might be the rectangular color Westinghouse. While the ebay set doesn't closely resemble the color set, there are other b & w Westinghouse sets that are dead ringers for it.

Knob Layout
The control know layout on the E-Bay set is different from Steves photo or from the photos of the chasis i have from the May 1957 PF Reporter article about the TV.
