  • wow what a cool tv set!

  • Thank you, glad you like it. This was the first vintage tv I bought.

    Des.

  • What make and model is it? Cant see a makers badge anywhere, only the word Automatic, its a motorised tuner, Stella had them, Bush pioneered their own Bush Button system in 1959, my parents bought their 17" Murphy table model brand new in 1957, didnt give ANY trouble at all, however as a small child it was stored in my grandparents attic in the throes of moving house.....I pulled the knobs off and mum and dad couldnt put them back on again!!

  • So beautiful & nostalgic!

  • @andretatontos Strong enough? A TV's ability to show something doesn't depend on its screen's strength.

    Yes, it is possible to put pretty much whatever source you want on the TV.

  • Does the screen is strong enough to play PS3?

  • @mervace Modern broadcast or DVD fed through a 625-405 standards converter most likely.

  • This is interesting. How is the quality of this video so good if it was recorded live from 1960? If this was done recently where did you get the transmission from. I would have expected to see some flicker on the TV screen due to no sync been fed to the recording camera. This is fishy???? hope you will comment on this Crusier?

  • Very nice set

  • @rayflute Good one ;-)) ! European TVs seemed have gotten that bug eyed look during those years. The US ones either had circular tubes (flat screen radar tubes for early B/W, domed slightly for early color) or pin cushion shaped with the corners cut out as far as possible. Either way, it was set in an inch or so. I wonder if the bug eyed look was thought to increase the viewing angle a bit. Of course, with LCDs, they all look about the same now.

  • @MrBrownberry ...wut

  • What's the film/programme being shown?
