I can. Cheater cord is generic name a line cord w/ two pin female connector on one end. Mostly used on tv's and radios from the '50s and 60's. Was used as a interlock so that if you took the back cover off of a set it would disconnect the ac power from in. Some don't have the mounting tabs on each side to rivet them to the Masonite back board. Now days it used on a lot portable sets but the size and spacing varies somewhat so all will not fit all sets.

When my pals were reading comic books
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!
