Early Sharp Color

[bgadow]

Today I stopped by to look at a decent sized antique radio collection which is for sale. (an estate) I didn't find anything I couldn't live without; had the prices been low enough I might have loaded the truck. Anyway, before I went down there I was told there was one TV set, no details. Could have been anything! Turns out it was something worth a second look: a Sharp color console from the sixties. Tiny little thing with seperate safety glass; decent, but not great, shape. I didn't see a model number on the back; the tube cap isn't attached but from what I can tell the crt is intact. As usual, it was the one item there that wasn't priced. I offered $30, they called back later and said $70. I am really curious who else would buy it, if not me. If there is someone else around here I'd really like to meet them-so I can unload some of my stuff on them! Well, I really don't see myself paying that much for a set that I have no room for, and who knows about the crt, etc. Wish I had a photo to post. Comments? If anyone wants to drive down here and get it let me know, I'll give you the contact info.
