The PHILCO Phorum

Having seen a GE Colorama set recently restored and working correctly, I must admit to thinking that flickering dial is pretty darn cool! I'm considering a table model and, having only pictures to go by, am wondering if anyone can tell me if the model E-81 is a true colorama dial set?

Thanks!

No. An E-81, while a darn fine radio, is not a Colorama. An E-91 is, as well as an E-101. One of those is table model, I think the 91 (I have one in my collection).

Thanks, Brenda. I appreciate it. I know the E-101 (table model) is, because I watched this YouTube video of one recently http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5AHwUbBHHQ

Also if it's a Canadian G.E E-81 it definatley is not a Colorama set, it's chassis is identical to a U.S RCA Victor model T7,T8.
