Forgive me for saying this but the colour of that Transitone TV is disgusting. The design is nice but it looks like a chain smoker sat in front of it for several decades. Is the circuit inside employ a series string or does it have a power transformer like the 51-T1601? That is one thing I have on my list is to get a Philco TV, or rather any early TV with Loctal tubes. Yes I know everyone seems to hate them but I always thought they had a retro-futuristic look.
Regards
Arran
