I have noticed that what you find or do not find in a given area largely depends on what dealer network was in your region when the set was made. In my area there was a regional distributor for Canadian General Electric and another for Philco, and there was a DeForest Crosley, an RCA, a Canadian Westinghouse, and a Sparton dealer in the area, so I see a fair number of those. I would bet that you would be more likely to see one of those big G.E sets in the New York/New England area or at least in an area that had a large G.E distributor nearby. I have seen some larger G.E sets but they are Canadian G.E sets, an altogether different animal.
