Hello To All!

Yes indeed, that is the TV that I grew up with, except that ours had the AM/FM on the right and the Phono on the left. Here is the story...

It was cold and dark that evening in 1965. My Father was rushing my mother to the hospital with contractions. Well, he didn't see the other car and there was a terrible accident. My mom was injured and lost the baby. My father (even though we were of modest means) in order to make my mom's recouperation at home easier purchased the best TV that the store had to offer which was the GE. The TV worked seemed to have its share of issues, but was lovingly taken care of. Sometimes (because we didn't have the money for repairs) we would watch it even though the picture was only in green tints! I remember though that we kept the tv until after I left for college and eventually the military. Mom later said that the TV had quit and the repairman could no longer get parts for it, so she either sold it or gave it away. I was really supprised and shocked (and quite hurt, as my brothers and I were never allowed to touch it unless my father would shout out to "turn the channel" or "focus it!" meaning fine tune it). I guess you could say that we kids were the real first wireless remote control!

The TV part is exact. Thanks for bringing back the bittersweet memories of those long off days Is there any way that I could find out what the chassis number or model number is? It will help me find another one.
