And for those with keen eyes, off to the left is a mid 1946 RCA 630TS TV (first mass produced TV) and underneath is an early 1946 RC 621TS (first post WW2 TV). Amazingly the 621TS 7" TV only has one changed part (a power resistor) since new and still works!

On the right is a 1960 Philco Danish Modern Predicta, which though electrically not as well built as the older RCAs is simply way cool!

Here they are in full view.

Nice!

I've been on the hunt for anything of similar vintage here, but only come across stuff that's much more worn out. I found an old Motorola radio last year at a thrift store that had seen much better days. I still got tubes, trannies, caps and what not out of it. Not bad for thirty bucks! :)

Love these new pics of the Wrecks!

HA, that bottom pic, I have that same stand. I believe its supposed to be cherry. The old Wilcox -Gay Tv was what use to set on it.No wait, the one I have swivels.. looks almost just like that one except for that,and need refinished. Its old. I think that TV was from the early 50s.
