Just won this lovely pair on eBay :)

Is that the channel indicator in the top center of the set? That's kinda neat!


My current location: Rodeo, California

Yes it is. If you were to see the set close up you'd notice the number itself is in kind of a TV-shaped bezel. Some documentary I watched a few years ago had a 1954 RCA commercial that touted (with song and dance, no less!) the style of that set as a "big change in television history." Well, if they said so, but who was anybody to argue with Sarnoff?

What a steal for $12! You've got a pair of lovelies for sure.

I think you should get some sort of reward for figuring out where to squeeze all this stuff in!

Nice steal for $12.00 though!

Wow - I can't believe you scored those for $12. I should check eBay more often...
Very, very nice. You'll have to post some more detailed pictures when you get them hauled home - I'd love to see the chassis and the tuning mechanism in the wooden one! That swivel set is awesome too - never seen one like that before. Definitely a good find.

I like 'em! :thmbsp:

Cool, 2 more fishtanks :D Nice for 12 bucks, even I woulda bought them for that. They would make nice speaker stands.

That is really cool!
One at least even works. First order of biznus, take off that safety glass and clean off that dirt, you'll probably double the brightness! :D

No doubt. Actually they BOTH work! Just waiting to hear back from the guy to see when I can pick em up :)
