There was some fool-ass sellin' a "Complete" collection of Mini-TVs" right next to it...Godfrey Daniel ! I got more in my "Junque" pile that that...Not only that, some other fool had bid $220 for that modest collection of "Ash 'n' Trash"...Oh, well...No accounting for taste, I spose...

The RCA looks like a CTC 7?

I think it's the CTC 7 metal tabletop called the Abington. Since it has the optional stand, it is definitely a set worth saving! Maine is too damn far from me!

what does the manual have written on it? 2-12-59? I assume thats the purchase date. This must be a 9 then. When were 9's introduced anyway? Wasnt it 1958/59?

All the knobs on the side and no channel indicator on the front shouts 9! to me. :scratch2:

It's an early CTC7. The one with the two 5U4s sticking out of the power transformer.
