The one I'd LIKE to have is my granfather's Zenith. It had one of those old Zenith "Ker-Chunk !!" remotes, was B&W, but had an almost round screen, was about 21" I'd imagine & was VERY "1956" looking, if you follow me. He had that set for YEARS, I don't remember what happened to it, but it's long since gone. I think it got tossed in '68 when they moved the '65 Zenith color roundie outta his office to his bedroom, & replaced the roundie in the office w/a 23" rectangular Zenith color. It had a "Ker-Chunk!!" remote, too, & I never much liked that set, even though it was color. It seemed cheap & tinny compared to old 1956. The picture was lousy- I don't think it was ever really set up properly. I stole it in '89 after he died, & they cleaned his office out. Gave it to a friend, wish now I'd kept it, in spite of itself.
