What is this Motorola TV worth?
What is this Motorola TV worth?
I saw it at an estate auction today. Had the auctioneer moved from the table lots to the house while I was there, I might have bid maybe $20. Couldn't see myself hanging around all day for a TV that I was not overly excited about. Fair condition, complete with back. Model # Y21K55MA Anything noteworthy about this model?  Now if it was a porthole Zenith TV, I probably would have hung around:-) Carl

Agreed; I'd guess '57 or so. Doesn't look terribly different from a '59 I have. Perfectly average performing sets, tuners are sloppy, all Motorolas have "character".
Tempting, in that situation, to make the auctioneer an offer. He probably knew it wouldn't bring anything. I think it was the last auction we went to, there was an old chest freezer in the basement filled with old Sears catalogs and magazines, plus a Robyn CB base station. I caught the auctioneers attention between bids and asked about it. He yelled out, "okay, taking bids on the contents of the freezer downstairs. $2? Sold!" Doesn't always work that easy, but often enough.
