I have several CRTs of varying sizes(not tested) from my uncle's estate. The house is being renovated and the CRTs will be thrown away if they aren't purchased. Location in Douglasville Ga. I've had some ppl tell me what they are but I will try to answer any questions you may have.

RCA mfg. code 274

Sylvania mfg code 312

How do I post pictures? I see the 'paper clip" icon and then I upload but nothing seems to have populated on my post.

I also have hundreds of old diamond needle for record players awa hundreds of old CB radio Crystals.

It sounds like you have a complete Zenith tube TV. Posting a picture of the cabinet will get more interest than the chassis tag and CRT tag alone.

That Zenith, the test tube and possibly the Sony if it's a complete TV and not just the CRT are probably the best TV things you have.

If your needles are new in the package, you would have better luck selling those. I don't know if CB crystals are of any use any more.

Could they be for Ham Radios/armature radios? I think my uncle was into Hams also. I will post a picture once I pull them out.

Well, there is a bit of urgency. The property they are at is in Douglasville Ga and I live 1hour away, I cannot bring them with me and they will be junked if I can't get anyone interested in them. I couldn't post that many pictures bc of that travel distance and limited size allowed for pictures(I've got some complaints about not having quality pictures in the past so I've cranked up the pixels and spent some time reducing the size until I could put them on my post).

So if you know anyone in the Atlanta area, let them know. Thanks for the response.

I will try and get some picture the next time I go out there

They are from the 1950s. My uncle had a radio/tv/furniture shop in Macon Ga. called Kirkwood Electronics.

John has got it right, the recent resurgence of people interested in records means that there are likely plenty of people looking for record player parts. Now, with the citizen's band pretty much dead, buried, and moldy, it's gonna take more searching to find buyers for those (or even someone who'll take them for free).

Interesting, the Zenith CRT is actually made by Sylvania ( EIA 312)! Never
seen that before.
If needles are packaged they can bring stupid $$ now. E-Bay them
with list of brands & part numbers. Cartridges also !
CB crystals probably have value to vintage CB collectors. Again E-bay

Haven't seen Sylvania made CRTs Zenith badged, but I had a Zenith badged 21FJP22 with an RCA EIA code.

I'd imagine when Zenith projected making more sets than their subsidiary Rauland could furnish CRTs for they'd go to other reputable makers and make up the difference there.
