in the completely delusional contest. Not satisfied with unrealistic prices for a vintage television of average interest to collectors, they have gone to paper for the big payoff. UHF converters are next.

The defense rests your honor.

Free shipping, how can you go wrong ?

All kidding aside if its all original I would pay some good $$
for it. Its probably a one of a kind collection. A lot of
us Zenith nuts would love to have it. But 3 Kilobucks ?
I would rather buy a clean 10 yr old Crown Vic & never have
to buy another car for the rest of my life.

This is for the "rare documentation" paperwork. No set included. Just a bunch of paper to some 50's pre-qualified recipient of a test set which you have to give back. You will get no set in this auction. Just some cellulose fiber with ink applied at a bargain $2900.

...or save that money to buy the Galvin '45 record - Motorola's CEO talking about the "new" Works-in-the drawer design at a shareholder's meeting. I have one, but some nut wanted 1000 bucks for one in 1999 - without a sleeve, which I have with mine. EVERY shareholder got one of the records, but for some reason, they are scarce. Not 1000 dollars scarce, but scarce.


Cheers,
