I've never seen it with short legs on a castered cart. This is the only version I've seen before: It was for sale in the Chicago suburbs in December of 2010 when I took these pictures.

I didn't buy it, although I now wish I had. My van was full that day, it would have required a second 400-mile round trip to get it home.

The one on the left, the SC600Z with the orange on/off button is probably the original, the SC600Z with the white button is newer, and then the one on the right, the SC600X is older. I looked around for other Zeniths those might go to, but this was the only TV there. I also picked up that little Zenith 'Royal 300' transistor radio.

This has been a good summer for estate sale finds in the Detroit area. Those 1961 Zenith consoles (the SC400 B&W and the console stereo), were also estate sale finds ('Captainmoody' found them at a sale, and I got them from him). This was at an estate sale on a small island SE of Detroit. You could see Canada across the water from the front yard of the house. I got there at 9:30 (when it opened at 10) and there was already a big line out front of the house. And they only let in a few people at a time, so it wasn't until 10:30 that I got inside. The TV was upstairs, so I had to carry it down the stairs. I took a couple pictures of the sale, if I can figure out how to post them from my phone, I will.


That's a real nice one there! And a rare one indeed. Take good care of it!

My son likes that show (He's 3) That other cart looks like it would hold up better, mine is starting to give a little under the weight of this heavy set.

After watching it for a while it developed some horizontal sync troubles, but it turned out to just be caused by that 330 ohm resistor which is well known for causing H sync problems. And it had already been replaced before, by a 1W! I would have put in 2W in there, but all I had was 1/2W and 1W, so I just put another 1W in there.

And I polished up the cabinet...

My Canadian brochure calls it The Avalon, model SD2560X. Regional difference I suppose.

Anyway, that's a sweet set, a real rarity. The SC600X is the original remote of course and the one with the white power/volume button is the correct replacement.

Edit: I just noticed the part in the first post identifying it as a E-line set, my bad. I agree that the 600Z remote with the orange power button is probably the original.

I think the Windermere is the 74 model, and the Avalon is the 73.
