New in the box sets are extremely rare, and too bad this one was missing the box. It probably was there, but maybe was tattered. All the other Sony stuff this lady was selling, was still sealed in boxes. I got two other sets from her; a 1981 KX-1901, and a 2001-ish 13" Trinitron that she said her Dad kept new because it was the last non-flat Trinitron made. My wife took a liking to it, and it's now her daily kitchen watcher (box carefully kept, of course).
Probably my most exciting new-in-the-box TV I have is a 1948 Motorola VT-71. Sadly, the rubber CRT mask melted anyway, and ruined the gold paint inside the front bezel. I'm not sure yet if I'll replace that, or leave the set virgin with the melted mask.
