Can you put the vintage TV set in the correct decade?

Check this out. Go to metv.com and take the quiz about what tv matches which decade.

Got them all, thanks to a couple of lucky guesses on the later models and above warning about the "trick" question.

The last one is a trick question, but it has the answer in the by-line. 13/13 right

D'oh! I missed on both Philco 17ers and the Maggie LCD, the ones from '58-'61 always throw me

The 50's sets I knew pretty well, it was the LCD hand-helds and a few others that threw me. The big, gaudy console I thought was an early 70's, but it turned out to be a 68 model.

I wonder how sharp the picture was on the Sharp eight years later?
IIRC, all the Sharps were low-voltage focus CRT's, that didn't age that well.
