rectangular color sets.
Hello all- I also have several non-round color sets from the late sixties and early seventies. I knew that they were worth saving. Lets see if i can remember all of them(they are in my storage areas). I have a ctc-19,like the one posted ,a zenith 15y6c15, like the one posted a zenith 16z8c19, 19" set, a sony kv-1201, i think, from 1968 or so, and several 25" table and console sets- A ctc-40(and at least 2 complete chassis), a heath gr-395(?) 20" set from 1970, a zenith 25mc36 set form 1965(this was their first rectangular set)a ctc -68 rca from 1974, and then theres my crown jewell--My rca g-2000--with the ctc-47 chassis, from 1969.I also have at least a dozen rectangular b.w.sets, from the early 1950's to the early to mid 1960's. so, i do save the rectangular sets.
Right now, the only round color sets i have are my zenith 29jc20, and an rca ctc-11. I have a couple of ctc-12 chassis, and maybe ,some other parts for round sets.
Anymore, if i am at a sale ,or auction, and a color ,or b.w.t.v that is the least bit worth saving turns up, i go for them, if they are cheap, and i can afford them. I have also found a number of nice sets in the trash(the latest one was an rca kcs-102, i think, 15'" b.w. portable, from 1956. i found it last fall.) They turn up on e-bay regularry, and go for anywhere from $15 to $100.00 .
The same goes for old radios, and hi-fi items .You just never know what you may find out there. A couple of years ago, i found a chassis from a guitar amp using two 6l6"s (i do not know what brand it is, it is in my garage.) And last year ,i found a mcintosh mr-71 tuner, which i sold on e-bay, for $600. 00!!
