I found a 77 Sears "Titanic" set.

Found this 1977 Sears Color Portable (Sanyo?) today at the Thrift Store, I paid a whopping $6.98 for it.

This is the same model used in the 1997 movie Titanic, perhaps you've heard of it?

It works fine but as usual the controls are in serious need of cleaning, it was a smokers set too, brown and smelly in the vents.

The Smoked Sun Shield has a big crack in it near the tuning knob, fortunately it's removable so I don't have to see it.
I seem to have started a small collection of Mod 70's TV's without intending to, they just pop up now and then and I have to buy them.

The only DVD I had handy was a copy of Leave it to Beaver so it's B&W.

Have you hooked up a DTV converter box yet? I'm sure the picture will be great.

I've got its 9" color cousin, I think I paid 10 bux or somesuch for it...Mine has a GORGEOUS picture, way better than what I expected...Mine was clean, but the "Refrigerator White" has mellowed into a nice cream...

you could always retr0bright white plastic to make it white again.

That is a sweet lookin set! I used to have the next newer one 13" white. Wish I still had it. My brother took it and it was in a kids bedroom and got plauged with stickers all over it. (kids). Then It dissapeared.
