Great Book

I just recieved this today, and I highly recommend it. It is full of ads for televisions from all the manufacturers. Lots of color (tv)ads, and color ads for B&W television. A lot on the advertising and marketing of color tv. All of you will especially enjoy this section.

Reeferman,

Funny you should mention this book "Window to the Future." I'm having lunch tomorrow with the author Steve Kosareff, a long time friend and tv historian. This is a wonderful book for vintage tv collectors.

Maybe Steve can ask him to speak at a future TV convention. Peverett grabbed a copy and sent me one. It is a very good book.

Polaraman,

I asked Steve Kosareff, today, about preparing a presentation for next year's ETF convention and he will get in touch with Steve McVoy down the line.

I agree it's a great book - for example, has some of the RCA "big color" ads I would like to have but have not seen available since I started collecting.
