Marconi Tv sets

well, I don't know if i am in the right place ..

There's a brand named MARCONI...Sometime i see some radio but I would like to know and see some Marconi tv...

So my question is: Is there some Marconi tv in circulation ? If yes, I would like to have some informations about Marconi..not for Marconi radio , just for Tv Marconi like Schematics, Ads etc etc... Sorry for the bad english .

Hello Marco-nix! I just did a search for "Marconi branded TV sets" and many answers came up, including a site with many pictures. Give it a try.
BTW, Your English is soooo much better than my French. If I need a translation I call upon my niece who is completely literate in French.

The Emerson 888 was also labeled Marconi. A few other Emerson models were sold under the Marconi brand name.
Wasn't it British based.

hello dieseljeep..

All I know is that the TV sets was difficult to repair. there was always the same problem and it was a tube that was often changed because the image zigzagged upwards when it was lacking ..That's what my father said to me longtime ago....The schematics are rare for Tv Marconi and I would like to have some..I don't know if Marconi was British based but we had this brand in Amercica back in the days

There was Canadian Marconi and they made lots of radios from the early 20's on up into the 60's maybe even longer. I do have a early 60's Canadian Marconi 21" console TV set that I will have to fix up some day. There was a mid 50's Marconi TV for sale on Kijji just recently and I missed it to a fish tanker.

There were lots of Canadian models, my RCC service data shows a fair number of different sets through the years. My data is not complete but I might have what you are looking for. Do you have a model number of the one you are interested in?

I've never seen product from or heard of a Marconi radio company in business in the U.S. of America (short of the pre-great depression [before 1929] Marconi transoceanic transmission experiments).

Sorry Marco-nix, the amount of Marconi stuff I have is waaay more than could ever be sent in an email. It would take a couple of boxes full to cover it all and I would not be willing to part with any of it. I sure can give you a copy of a schematic or what ever info I have on a certain set but not much more then that.

There's someone selling nearly 100 Marconi Channel selector knobs on eBay, they are in Canada.
