I am pretty good with TVs of this vintage, but I have never seen one like this. Any clue what it is?

Looks to me like a Zenith (or a Korea-made set with the Zenith logo slapped on). You can see part of the old lightning bolt "Z" logo just below the CRT. This would not be a genuine Zenith due to the vintage, as the original Zenith Radio Corporation of Chicago went out of business for good in the late '80s-early 1990s. All they were producing by then were offshore-made sets with their old logo slapped on the cabinets.

It looks very much RCA to me. What looks like a Zenith logo, I think is just a scratch.

I thought it had an RCA/Proscan look about it

I was thinking it was one of those really junky RCA sets that came out after Thomson quit manufacturing TVs, or a Sanyo. It's not a Zenith or anything that was labeled a Zenith.

it might be a proscan tv

I was a Zenith dealer until 1998, and I can say with certainty it is nothing I ever saw in their line-up.

I was there too a little longer before we DUMPED Zenith.
A few years later IIRC they sold some stuff like that. Wasnt even
Gold Star probably ChiCom.
Which begs the question. Why as long as GS controlled Zenith
I dont remember a GS built CRT set labeled Zenith. Its odd
they didnt use just one chassis across the board. Also why did
they let the Zenith name & dealer network die on
purpose ? Must have been some tax deal involved.

I have seen some GS TV's from the '90's that had Zenith CRT's in them (bad, of course).

I have seen a couple GS made sets with Zenith branding from the 90's - there was at least one 19", some TV/VCR combo units and a 27" with a flat CRT. Towards the end a lot of the 13" sets were Daewoo but the 25"+ sets almost always had a Zenith chassis.

Right now, there's a 2008 Zenith 20" HealthView flat CRT hospital set with a built-in DTV tuner at the flea market for $30 that looks like it has a bad filter capacitor. I'm sure that's one of the last Zenith branded CRT TV's.

Let me guess, it's in this 90's cabinet http://salestores.com/stores/images/images_747/H20J55DT.jpg

Yep, that's the one. I think that cabinet design went into use around '93 or so. I used to have a '91 Zenith hospital set that looked like something from the early '80's; so, they must have kept the same cabinet designs on the hospital sets in use for a long time.
