What is this? B&W or Color?
![]() The cabinet looks like a CTC-5 Westcott, but the mask and tube look rectangular instead of round. The seller says it has the "Super" badge on the front, he's going to take a better picture of the control panel on the front. Did RCA use the same cabinet for both B&W and color sets?

B/W for sure... It is mid 50s and RCA did not have a rectangular color jug at that time.
jr Similar to these B/W sets on the TV history site: http://www.tvhistory.tv/1956-RCA-24D655U.JPG http://www.tvhistory.tv/1957-RCA-21D7446.jpg Last edited by jr_tech; 12-05-2010 at 05:14 PM. |

Classic mid-50s RCA bw console. Lumped together, maybe the most common set ever made. I suspect the cabinet on this one isn't as deep as the color sets. They were making bw crts shallower at that point. These aren't bad sets, but they are only worth pocket change.
