There's no right answer to that question. That it's working and good condition is a plus. Hopefully it was restored, otherwise turning it on could damage it if an electrolytic capacitor fails.

According to the Kyle Husfloen's Price guide for Radio and Television it would be worth about $150 when the book was published in 2007.

Is this for your use? I'm sure everyone would like to see a photo.

A pic of the set

Hey! Thanks for the advice
We're not using the TV, actually. It just sits in the game room looking pretty!
here's a pic.
Thanks again!

artistatina, sorry that you haven't gotten more responses. I would say $150 would be correct, basically. A little on the high side for what they usually change hands for but on ebay, clean and with a proven good crt, I think that would be right...maybe quite a bit higher. Thing is, the old TV hobby is not that well established. There aren't enough collectors (yet) to really establish a good price guide. Sale prices right now are all over the map. Sets similiar to yours are still getting thrown in the trash or given away, while others are paying hundreds of dollars for the same set.
