Don't tell me that they were priced with fire sale prices or I would be green with envy :-)

Carl

Well, there was definitely some leniency in pricing due to the fact that we were taking pretty much everything.

I'll have a bunch of 7JP4s available, I already have some tested and set aside so there ought to be plenty to go around. PM me.

That one set is one I don't know a lot about, but definitely caught my eye even from the sidewalk. I love it. It's complete except for one of the sides which had gotten wet and was pretty much missing. I've already dismantled it and prepped it for my cabinet guy to restore.

I'll keep my eyes open, largest CRT in the lot so far is a 16WP4... but I'll be checking out more CRTs on Wednesday.

Justin, if you find a 16EP4 or 16AP4 or 19AP4 CRT that you want to part with, let me know.

Thanks

Oh my goodness!
I think I'd have an anxiety attack and it would all be over.

Aside from the tuning knob, and the time knob on the bottom of the right side (both of which I could use), all the knobs on a Philco Safari are identical. What I'm looking for is the tuning knob, the time knob, three of the side adjustment knobs and the screen hood for a brown Philco Safari.

Final day! The entire rear of the storage unit was solid CRTs and I was able to take 80% of them. Mostly 7JP4, 10BP4, and 12LP4s, but I'll be going back Monday to pick up the larger boxes which wouldn't fit in the Jeep.

Most unusual are these Image Orthicons. I have no idea of their usefulness, but there sure are a lot of them!

Also not pictured, is a 7" "Meck" TV. I've never heard of it.

Hey Carl, I haven't come across any of those yet, but as I mentioned in the above post I still have to go back for some larger CRT boxes whose contents are unknown.

Ok, it'll be a few days before I can get to the Safaris, but one I know is going to be relegated to parts so I'll check on it.

Hey, you should come visit the shop if you have some time, always cool to hang out and talk vintage electronics.

The RA-103 is available. There's a scratch on the front but beyond that it's in great shape.

cwmoser · #39 06-18-2014, 07:35 PM

Wow. This is the opportunity of a lifetime.
Clean it out - don't feel you have too much and let some
good stuff go to the dump.

Carl

kramden66 · #40 06-18-2014, 08:54 PM

if you don't need the 16WP4 i might need one , also if there are any you think are too far gone put pics up before parting them or tossing , you never know someone might want to restore it.

mstaton · #41 06-18-2014, 08:57 PM

Love the wagoneer! Most I see are usually rust buckets

azbigsam · #42 06-18-2014, 09:42 PM

I see a 7" Firestone set there. I'm very interested in it if you consider selling it.

egrand · #43 06-18-2014, 10:12 PM

Wow! Just, Wow!

That must be a once in a lifetime opportunity and I'm glad you grabbed so much. Hope you got room!

Meck TV's must really be rare on the West Coast. They were made in Indiana and aren't very common even around here.

Jon F · #44 06-18-2014, 11:58 PM

If you decide to sell any of the 10BP4's I'd be interested in one for my 721TS

I'm definitely not going to leave anything behind. It's worth the extra effort and mileage.

No other plans for that CRT, I'll get in touch with you after I'm able to verify it's a good one.

Thanks. It took me a while to find one that was solid and original... and you're right, many of them are rustbuckets, even up into the 80s!

It's for sale, open to an offer via PM. Some of these sets I'm keeping for my own collection but other sets and CRTs will have to go to recover the investment.

Just posted an ad in the classifieds, have several 10BP4s for sale.
