+1 Bob. Yeah, they bought it in 1949 or so, but by 1960, with the CRT starting to dim and after having the set repaired at least 2X, they figured that for about 1.5 to 2X the cost of a repair, they could get a 23" B/W job with a fancy cabinet.
Grandma bought a Zenith portable in 1964 when her DuMont RA113 CRT got dim and the Tech told her that it would be cheaper to buy a new TV. I now have both and may fix before I grow dim.
