I was leafing through my SAMS collection. I came across a Maggie roundie SAMS 1117-2! Date of Aug 1970. Not saying this is the last set but it may be close. 21GYP22 CRT?

Hi polaraman,
I would definitely say that Maggie was the last Roundie set. They were series string and had the usual Maggie flyback issues. Semi-decent picture when new. An economy set for sure. Worked on one which was purchased new by it's owner in February, 1972 for $125. Lasted him 18 years. Lightning killed it. The Philco late Roundie had more interesting circuitry and was a hybrid set. It had an excellent picture but was no Zenith! |

Wow, that was a good price for a TV that big in 1972. My parents paid $89 for a 16 in. Midland B&W at White Front in 1972 during the Republican convention
