Greetings from FixitLand!
I didn't see *my* grandparents' set in the ad either. It was a 23" B/W set, much like the units shown at the bottom of the centerfold page but in a black *metal* cabinet, not wood. I seem to recall chassis KCS-136...but my memory is pretty porous. Grandparents wore out original CRT in eight years; I put in a new one and they ran it two more years until it suddenly went to a noisy, pasty pic and my uncle bought 'em a new set. I got the old one. Turned out the 2nd IF stage plate resistor "let the smoke out" -- put a new one in and the ol' RCA kept on tickin' for me until 1982 when I "inherited" my folks' 1975 RCA color set (which had popped the vertical-output coupling cap resulting in flat-line). But that's another story...
Take care,
--
