Beverly Hillbillies- Color TV Set

[Oldstuff78]

Speaking of Color TV's in old shows witht the Hazel thread and I brought it up in another thread some time ago, what was the color set that the Clampetts owned in the B&W years of The Beverly Hillbillies ? I want to say a RCA.

I know it was a 63 or 64 French Provincial style because there was a Christmas of 63 episode when Granny got it and thought it was a washing machine. The follow up episode is how she is addicted to watching it all day and becomes a big fan of The Quirt Manly show played by Henry Gibson.

The TV is featured again in the episode "Granny Versus The Weather Bureau" They show a close up of the TV weather girl that Jethero is in love with and Granny gripes about about telling the weather wrong. The Weather girl says it will be a nice evening for a weenie roast at the beach and she would see everybody there. Jethero believes her and starts asking Granny about weenies. Later he comes home mad that he waited 2 hours and she never did show up.
