These sets are made for use in Prisons. The clear case is to prevent people hiding things inside the TV case. A while back there was a post on this forum where someone found a clear cased B&W set (Zenith) from memory in a thrift store.
I'd like one as it's they are the only clear cased sets I can think off that were made for something other than promotional or prototyping purposes. I've seen them and clear cased radios as props in various TV shows set in Prisons, but I've never actually seen one myself. I wonder if they actually use similar clear cased sets here in Australian prisons. I want one, but not enough to pay shipping from the USA.
