Bryan,

Those screen shots look great. I can't wait to work on my CTC-9C. Hope it looks half as good...

You have an awesome rare collection of colour sets!

That Packard Bell set has some cosmetic characteristics similar to my 1959 HMV F5-A6 B&W set http://www.troysvintagevideo.741.com/hmv.html and many other Aussie made B&W sets made in the late 50s , the wood colour, the positioning of the knobs (except mine are at the bottom) and most notable the blue/violet/grey tint colour of the plastic bezel behind the safety glass. I notice that safety glass tint characteristic with quite a few vintage sets of the same era my friend John has http://cool386.tripod.com/ see this pic for example http://www.flickr.com/photos/1346915...in/photostream . I wonder if the colour is due to age of the glass?

Great thread, love checking out those TVs, had I been living in the states knowing my luck of getting a hold of rare vintage TVs, cameras etc. I would of had a roundie for display. But being in Australia and Australia not getting colour broadcasts till late 1974 we missed the roundie era so the odds of coming across one here is less than 1% compared to in the states but we did have a few used in colour demonstrations and training in the 60s so there's still a chance of getting one over here, I was lucky enough to get a 1947 Andrea VJ12 B&W TV chassis http://www.troysvintagevideo.741.com/andrea.html so knowing my luck I reckon I'll find me a roundie somewhere here or get enough dollars together to import one from the states .

'59 CTC-9 Paterson

Here's my 2 cents worth; my unrestored 1959 RCA CTC-9 Paterson with 'Panoramic sound' (3 speakers). Great Mid-Century Modern design!
