Anyone recognize this set?
It's at an upcoming estate sale in my area. Trying to decide if it's worth going to check out

1st generation Chromacolor set from '72 or so. One of their best chassis designs and not a commonly seen set anymore. Grab it!

I think that is a 4-tube hybrid chassis; but, certainly a Zenith color set from the early '70's. I haven't had a Zenith that used the 4-tube chassis since '97; so, yes, they are getting hard to find.

It looks like the '73 Zenith I have (mine's in a different cabinet), the set I have is the all solid state horizontal chassis, called the Titan 200. It has modules, and the same type very rectangular delta gun CRT, IIRC, it's a 25VBEP22. Good set.

I have a '67 GE that has its original 23egp and it tests like new. I'm pretty sure it's a very low hours set.They are not all bad

What's a fair price for it, if working?

Depending on what is under the hood between 10-60$ in my book.

About what I figured. I'll go Saturday morning when they have everything half off, I imagine it'll still be there. Could sneak out tomorrow though, it's close enough....
