Two Great Flea Market Finds: Sears 5028 and Philco Ford N1052BK
When it rains it pours...I picked up not one but two great old B&W TV sets today. The Sears 5028 is a combination Alarm Clock/AM/FM/TV in a veneer cabinet. It powers up and everything works. I think it's really cool but am not sure what the market would be for this item back in the '60s, since it only has an 8" screen and must have been pretty expensive. The other one I've been trying to find for years -- the Ford/Lincoln/Mercury factory accessory TV for cars! I have a '68 Cougar and this TV is listed in the accessory brochure. It also powers up but I haven't been able to hook it up to cable yet -- I need to wire up an adapter to it. I can't wait to enjoy them both!
