They are also made to be repaired. Furthest thing from modern throw-away junk possible!

Interesting to note that this cabinet design was copied ad nauseum into the NAP era (later eighties). Those sets did not contain the hi-contrast tube nor the well laid out chassis, however.
30 years ago I was hauling junk sets from TV shops to tinker on. One guy gave me a pair of identical Sylvania's-great, I maybe I can make one good one out of the two! Nope, they were only identical on the outside. One was GTE, the other NAP.
