Console TV or stereo kill switch

[Chad Hauris]

I have a Magnavox 21" B/W wooden table model TV with a switch like this. The controls are on the top under a hinged control panel, and when the panel is closed, the set shuts off. Also Micro Switch brand and similar switches have been around a long time, at least since the early 50's. They were used in Wurlitzer jukeboxes of the time.
