ID this TV?

My friend found a mysterious TV in an abandoned house and he's going to try to get it for me. Any idea what kind it is?

At first, I thought Sylvania!
It could be a Wells Gardner private label set, Penncrest or Coronado. I had one with the same control panel.

I thought it looked Sylvania-ish. Tube or SS? Year?

I say Sylvania as well. Looks to be 19 inch set most likely a D-16 chassis. If memory serves a all tube set though (might be hybrid) and hot chassis, not sure though been a long time since worked on one. Do know that the D-14 chassis is hybrid as i'm looking in the back of one. All the best,Tom

I really hope I'll be able to get this set. I've been wanting a tube Sylvania table set. Hopefully I can resurrect it.

Sure looks like a Sylvania to me! I think it may be a B/W set, difficult to tell, but quite sure Sylvania! Hope you score it, then you can let us know, what it is! :-)

D-12 was a tube hybrid (with more tubes than the D-16), D-16 was also a hybrid 5 tubes (4 sweep and one video amp tube). Both good sets. I saved a D-26 in worse shape and made it work.

I got this TV today - or what's left of it. The cabinet is completely rotten and the chassis doesn't stand a chance of working ever again. I had to carry this thing about half a mile through the woods. The guy that got this for me said he knows someone with a roundie in mint condition. Now THAT got my attention!
