An update on my little Toshiba Color Portable!
A week ago, I was able to get it to this point! The picture looks a little better than the camera shows. I had to give a serious shot to the CRT, being an Instant On set, the CRT was way dead! So, it won't be permanent, but for occasional (short) use, it will do. The only real repair, was a flakey 3.58 Crystal I replaced, and a weak 6GH8A. I'm sure the little CRT is pretty much un-obtainium!

Thanks, Mark! I thought it turned out pretty well, I know this would definitely have been thrown away, right after the Estate Sale, so better the way it is, as a rescue, rather than landfill! So hard to find these little color portable tube / tube hybrid sets!

At the risk of disparaging a domestic manufacturer - that picture looks much better than a porta color for that era
I agree these little gems are impossible to find anymore.

You get what you pay for, and I don't think the Japanese made a cheaper color set than GE's Portacolor at the time.

It works with issues in the color section, last time I powered it up. Can't say if it falling did anything else to it. I'll have to test it out. I paid 40 bucks, you can have it for 30.
