Philco Predicta Console 50's????
#1

My husband and I recently purchased a vintage TV from an antique market and we have been unable to find any information about our specific set.

It is a Philco Predicta Miss Canada, model # 4656. It does not have an "S" after the number as is the Swivel model. It is a floor model with a beautiful reddish wood and the three-speaker "wraparound sound". It is very similar to the 1958 Miss America except that the channel and volume control are on the top right of the unit, not in the front.

The audio works fine but we have no picture at the moment. Regardless, we love the set. It's a beautiful piece of furniture, functioning or not! : )

I will post pictures if there is any interest.

Can anyone here tell us what we have and what options are available to us in the way of repairs to the picture?

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!
