Here's a nice example of a CTC5 in Michigan on eBay (no affiliation):

What are the chances that with a picture like this that the set hasn't been serviced recently? The seller seems to know what he's talking about, but mentions nothing of the sets service history.

With a picture like that I'm sure its had some work done....

That's the CTC-5 "Westcott" model with the Super series chassis. It looks to have a 21AXP22A picture tube, which was the original tube with this set. Nice bright picture and clean cabinet.

I wonder what else he has? Look around by the set, you can see radios and I think another tv. This one has obviously had work done, the picture is great!

Check out this thread and you can see the rest of his collection.

Wow! That must be the same CTC-5 thats on his site, I wonder why he's selling it. Thanks for clarifying things tubesrule.

If it doesn't go for too much I'll drive up to Michigan and pick it up, Maybe that set along with my wescott ctc 5 can get married and have babies:banana:

Good luck Larry! I hope you get it!! If you do, let me adopt one of the babies!LOL!!
