1971 RCA Color TV Catalog

[JB5pro]

I first met Dwight back in January 2003 when I first drove out to Detroit to pick up a TV I bought from him on ebay. I'll never forget when he offered me a absolutely mint "Terano" complete with the manuals (on page 27) but neither of us had the space at the time and sadly it was parted out by both of us when I went up there to pick up the other TV. Looking back, that was a bad move on my part and I wish I could turn the clock back and save it. I guess the good news is, the parts from the CTC-39 chassis that it had were put to use as its helped fix numerous sets over the years and I still have the CRT. I'd also love to find a Trans Vista portable like the Argosy model EP-506 on page 30. I have the '73 XL-100 version of this set ('73 was also the first year for the XL-100), but to find the early production Trans Vista would really be a unique set to have. I've never seen one.[/QUOTE]

It has been a long time but I remember as a child I was very impressed by it but I am thinking there were some detail differences on the front of the cabinet. The control panel looked the same but was solid-state inside. Is there a '72 catalog viewable anywhere?
