That looks like the one Barry on "Storage Wars" had made into a diaramma (sp) Neat TV. Much nicer than ours was.

Toad, you're a Barry fan, too? I remember when my parents got our first color t.v. My aunt and her family came over to see it; it was a big deal.

Same at our house. A serviceman had to set it up to get all the settings right. When it was first turned on, the first thing that appeared was a purple tiger. Also, for some reason the cabinet of that TV was metal with fake wood grain applied.

KK, Yes, I like Barry. He's crazy like me. He does crazy things like driving up to the mansion like It was his, and the lady steps out. "Who are you"? He's around the same age, but I suspect he has a LOAD of money? I think he perhaps has that DARK sense of humor I like. He Is just a neat guy.

We had a blade switch on ours and you could switch it from North to South additionally there were rabbit ears to wiggle the around to help.
