1957 admiral color on ebay!

[rca2000]

I had the high bid on that set, for three days, right up till 2 minuites to the end of the auction, and at that time ,i was driving home from work, and had no way of knowing i had lost it, 'till i got home.

At least, it is in good hands. Probably better hands than mine, as now it will be there for ALL to see, and not in my basement, where I was planning to put it. Steve will also have more time, knowledge, and money, to bring it back to its former glory, than I would have, SO, all in all, I am not really THAT disappointed.

At least, it won't be far away from me( under 2 hours to columbus), so, i can see it , hopefully working ,sometime.

Congratulations, Steve!!

Jack,
You show a lot of grace and class. I agree with your sentiments that with the Admiral in Steve's ETF Museum, many folks will now be able to view and enjoy it.

I agree. You know,The second high bidder rebsar is someone that I know, And if he got it all it would have done is sit in his basement untouched and unseen until he passes away!
He even admits to this, And figures his kids will just throw the stuff out when he is gone!!

I appreciate everyone's attitude. I hope to restore this set and put it on display. Don't forget the 2004 Convention - April 24 and 25 in Columbus. We will have the CBS field sequential color system on display, with our Gray Research monitor and at least one CBS receiver. We hope to have a camera working by then.
