Predicta Miss America

1 Attachment(s)

Just had to share this Miss America Princess with everyone. I don't have the model number handy but I know it's a 24" CRT. The restoration done by Tom Albrecht really brought the set to life. It has the original remote also. Picture shown on the screen is the new format and for that reason doesn't fill out the screen. Nothing to do now but sit back and watch.

I love those things. If I remember, Phil Nelson has a neat article on the one he redid on his website. Beautiful set.

Yes, and the article includes a little history about the Miss America line:

A nice performer. I like the cabinet design of cherokeeroad's set better than mine.
