'66 rca
I'm having a difficult time getting any info on my new acquisition, a 1966 RCA color set, model GH 759 F. Any info on this set would be appreciated. Google had nothing. Its a french provincial style cabinet. The lady I bought it from is 93yrs old and took very good care of it. The crt was replaced in the 80s and the cabinet is in beautiful shape.

Dropping the last letter from the model number, came up with SAMS #879-3 which also is the set and folder number for a CTC-25 chassis. All the best, Tom

The set has a beautiful picture. I was watching a color Ed Sullivan show last night with original commercials. It was really nice.

You have Ed Sullivan in color with original commercials:-) I have a very rare Sept. 10th, 1967 Ed Sullivan show in color with all the original commercials including the cigarette commercials and the CBS Presents This Program In Color opening at the start. Red Skelton is on this show. Excellent quality:-)

There is nothing like watching a show with the original commercials on a vintage tv! It just adds something to the experience.

The CTC25 wasn't that hard on 6GH8's. It wasn't a 7 6GH8 chassis like some of the others. CTC19, 20, 24, 27, 31 and CTC38/39 had between 5 and seven of them.
