View Full Version : Is this a Roundie?? If so, what make? barrynsue 07-12-2007, 10:04 PM http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t214/barrynsue/1Roundie.jpg Guy has this for sale (not working) but looked interesting but I know nothing about them. Barry polaraman 07-12-2007, 10:45 PM Not a color roundie. A 19" Black and white Dumont. polaraman David Roper 07-12-2007, 10:45 PM It is a Du Mont from ~1950. A roundie I suppose...technically...but not a color set. Sandy G 07-13-2007, 05:06 AM Would STILL be a neat set to get & restore... barrynsue 07-13-2007, 05:24 AM I have no interest in these but thought someone from the forum may be interested. I am in southeastern VA and can pick it up if you folks give me an idea of value. I can store it if there is any interest until you can make arrangements to come get it. Barry bgadow 07-13-2007, 11:16 AM DuMont's of that era are overbuilt-a real tank. Those big round picture tubes like this are a weak point but either way, a nice enough set to grab. David Roper 07-13-2007, 05:22 PM That's not one of their more attractive designs. It appears to be an RA-103D chassis shotgun-wedded to a 19" tube. It looks almost like a hobbyist's project using a generic after-market cabinet. I don't think it is...but it looks that bad. barrynsue 07-13-2007, 07:52 PM I will let it pass. Just wanted to make sure no one wanted it. Thanks for all of the info. Barry Steve Hoffman 07-16-2007, 11:46 PM Barry buddy, THIS is a roundie. barrynsue 07-17-2007, 04:15 AM Steve, :lmao::lmao: Great to wake up in the morning to this post! I was wondering about that in your signature and now I understand - and agree! Truly have no knowledge about these TV's but didn't want it to get thrown away of it was worth something to someone fairly close. Barry |
