I have a few 12" b&w sets. One is a 1978 Magnavox (built by Philips Video Corp of Taiwan) which is totally discrete SS and is a good performer; and the other is a '75ish GE with the SF chassis. Also a good basic set, especially for a hybrid. One particularly interesting set I've got is a Panasonic speed-o-vision from about 1973-4. Its SS, and has instant-on! CRT is still really bright though.

I did find one of those RCAs once from 1981 or so, same exact set looks-wise.... They tend to last for a very long time. I threw it away though since I had way too many 12" b&w's at the time.
