Is another man's treasure! This was found amongst four TVs dumped off for recycling at a local appliance shop.[attachment=0]
It's a 1964 RCA New Vista color console set with the round CRT. Cabinet is great and the set works enough to watch some. I think the tube is strong, but ugh how to repair that issue with the silicone behind the safety glass getting gunked up? Local TV shop still has some 21 inch round CRTs for these sets, so I will check the number and see what will all numbers will work with the set. This caps off my small TV collection.
P.S. This thing is 46.5 inches wide and is HEAVY! Next hobby is stamp collecting!

No matter where you go, there you are.
