That's pretty cool. Even the old remote control clickers themselves never show up on eBay. Space Command remotes turn up all the time and sometimes a RCA, but never any other brands.

I never see old sets turn up here at all pre 1970, unless it's a b&w portable.

I would like to find a roundie in a traditional styled cabinet and it having a remote would be the icing on the cake. I doubt that will happen anytime soon or probably never.

You know all too well what happened with that deal on the 65 zenith.
