RED Sony 13" Trinitron 1980s TV/Monitor

This is a red 13" Sony Trinitron TV/monitor, model KV-1397R. The red paint is original. I demonstrate it with both off-air UHF TV via the rabbit ears, and composite input from my laptop. I got it at Goodwill yesterday and haven't taken off the $9.99 price tags yet.

It is not stereo, but the single built-in speaker sounds very good for its size. Unfortunately I didn't get the original remote or rabbit ears with it. Finding a matching red remote will probably be very difficult!

I just picked one of these up yesterday, but in woodgrain rather than red. Great classic gaming TV, too.
