Question Could this be a find?

As some of you may know, my wife is a major league Barbie collector. She's been having a conversation with a guy in the Chicago area who found a bunch of Barbies in the attic of his house. My wife happened to mention that she has an understanding hubby who has his own addictions...primarily vintage tube electronics and hi-fi gear.

The guy said he might have something your husband might be interested in...

So, anybody know what this is? I'm really not a tv guy!

ps...any thoughts as to what this is worth just in case I want to make an offer?

I think it may be a Stewart-Warner. I have one with an identical knob layout. The big one on the right would be the tuner and the big one on the lrft would be a dummy. This might be identical to model 9103. The lower four would be power/volume, brightness, contrast, vertical hold. The above four would be focus, vert lin, height and another which escapes me at the moment.

I vote for Stewart-Warner.

At first glance, my thought was, "Is that set black and white, or is it... ?"

Like i said... that was at first glance. I guess it looks a little small to be a 15" color set.

Thinking it was color might seem far-fetched, but ya never know how many color prototypes there might be out there. We've already seen a couple of guys here stumble across 15" prototypes. The possibilty is always there.

This one, I'm sure, is black and white. But at first glance, it sure was questionable.

Clay- I'd offer him $50 for it anyway. Looks to be in decent shape, would be a nice conversation piece. Tell yr wife she could park a bunch of her Barbies on it ! <Grin>-Sandy G.

She's grumbling already!

I should post pics of my basement. She thinks one set of speakers should be enough!
