Electrohome made regular TVs from 1952 to about 1972, then they became the
Canadian marketing arm for JVC, selling rebranded Japan made sets, and after
a few years the Electrohome name floated from one distributor to another, and
was put on progressively lower quality imports. I recently purchased a brand
new DVD/VCR combination (to be able to watch DVDs on my old TVs without
video input) and the box proudly boasts 'Celebrating 100 years of Electrohome
in Canada', although the unit is made in China and is a far cry from an earlier
Toshiba unit. Electrohome started out in 1908 as a furniture manufacturer.
I also have two 'real' Electrohome B/W TVs, both 21-inch units, from 1956
and 1960. Getting back to my color TV, it appears to be from the early-post-JVC
period. I hope some fellow Canadian collectors can tell me more about it, the
model number yields nothing in Google. Good night.
P.S.: some Electrohome sets were sold in the U.S., and are listed in Sam's.
P.P.S.: just have a look at this link and search the word Electrohome for two
typical 'real Electrohome TVs' (one branded for a well known department store).
