Just watched some classic holiday material on a classic tv

Hey all,

Since I haven't been using it much, I connected my '72 Chromacolor to a VHS/DVD combo unit and spent my late afternoon and evening watching old favorites...Very pleasing, since I love the holidays and love this TV

First I watched It's A Wonderful Life...in b/w on VHS. Considering how many plays this tape has, it did quite well. Next, an old compilation of 60's Christmas cartoons that someone gave my father before I was even born (!!) The tape had some rough spots, but they're fun stories and the color looked fabulous on the Zenith. Then, when I thought I was all Christmas'd out, I switch to cable and see the original Grinch movie on WABC. Again, the colors just seemed to come to life on this set....

It actually raises a question; why do these tv's have such good color? I mean I have the SAM's so the convergence,purity,ACC,crosstalk and grayscale is perfect but...my other vintage color's don't really do color the same. Something to do with the crt, I guess.

But, thought I'd wish y'all a happy holiday season while I'm here.
