Not one like that but I recall Sony marketing a 3-screen TV in the 70s. It even had a remote control, IIRC. What they did, though, was combine 3 of their 12" B&W TVs into a larger walnut case so there was very little 'integration' going on. They may have also attempted marketing a Trinitron version, too, but I never saw one.
They were all the rage for the well-heeled sports nut of the day, mostly doctors and lawyers in my old college town. Cheers, David

I saw one a long time ago, very much like that one. I thought it was a Teknika, but maybe it was a Sampo.

That is the funniest thing I have ever seen! Why did they stop at 3?

Interesting little hooberbloob. I have a Sampo "All in One"- 5" color TV, AM/FM, & Cassette. It mostly works, but is from '81 as well, & was obviously never intended to last this long...That, & somebody along the line was less-than-kind to it...

The Sampo TriScreen... I've had a couple of them, and I know that they were once sold by the Spiegel Catalog around 1980. Not sure where else. Not a bad set at all, and it had an EARLY infrared remote!

Probably because 3 is the first odd prime. (By definition, 1 is not considered a true prime.)

This was back before cable TV was common. So 3 networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) so 3 displays.

I well remember from the early 80s there was a set frequently given away on The Price Is Right. It was a console with a 25" color screen plus 2 small bw screens. I am almost positive it was an Hitachi.

Just added this cool set to my collection!!! Well, back in the early 50's Westinghouse produced a rare experimental 4 tube color set...the Wesetinghour 8440CKQ using match quad of RCA 15GP22 CRTs. Designed for early sports enthusiants....no just kidding, playing around with Adobe Photoshop...but it would sure be neat PIP.

And you wouldn't have to worry about heating your house in the winter... Let's see: About 160 tubes in there!
