Philco H2010L "Safari"
#26

Philco germanium transistors were the best in the industry. The Safari benefitted from superior transistors, low internal heat, low voltage operation and improved board material among other things. Much of the design work was done by the Transistor Application engineers and GI.

The first year Predictas were based on a reworked 1958 portable chassis and some questionable mechanicals all jammed into boxes mandated by the stylists. The second year Predictas were based on totally updated electronics.

In the late 50s, the TV division was headed by the newly appointed James Skinner JR, son of a founder, who was following footsteps to President. Product development cycles were 3 years at the time.
