Westinghouse color roundie in CT
 
1 Attachment(s)
Holy Hannah! Don't think I've ever seen a Westy roundie before. And it comes with a spare Zenith 21FJP22A.
No affiliation, of course. Someone's going to save this, right?

Wow! That's a nice looking set. I wonder if it's an RCA chassis or a Westinghouse chassis in there. And it works(ish)! A recap and that would play great!

Hmm, and it's only 2 1/2 hours away... I'm gonna watch that, I think.

Seems like those controls would make it a CTC-15 proabably from '63 or '64

Great find! Must be very rare.

Thats a really awesome set, The cool thing is that the cataracts can be fixed and then you would have a good spare tube!

I knew a Westinghouse would have to turn up SOMETIME. There was a later rectangular for sale in Texas last year but I don't know that anyone ever got it. Someone sure needs to snag this one. I'd agree that it looks like a thinly disguised CTC-12.

Anything Westinghouse is welcome in my book.

I'm so tempted, but now is the wrong time for me to get this.

RetroHacker 01-30-2008 04:27 PM

Well, tried all day to come up with a good reason not to go for this one, but I can't. I wouldn't want my Sylvania to be lonely. I'm going to try for it. A spare picture tube and a basically working roundie, and it's only 2 1/2 hours away, I can't not try for it.

Go for it, Ian! If I were that close I'd do it.

zenithfan1 01-31-2008 11:53 AM

I agree, I have stared at that listing, drooled for awhile and came to the conclusion that I just can't have it. But 2 1/2 hours is very close in my book! Please go for it! at least that way all of us know it's saved!!

I cannot believe the set has no bids yet, and the auction is only a day left! The big thing is this set has a raster! The seller should of listed the set as a "Vintage Westinghouse Round Tube Color TV". I bet would of got more bids that way. You cannot go wrong for a starting bid of $9.99 though.

Somebody ought to pick it up for the 21FJP22A alone. If you blow up the pics of the spare CRT it looks somewhat gray, but the edges seem to be starting to cataract. Too bad its not a 21FBP22A. Are all rare-earth 21FB and 21FJ gray? What does the "40 C 19 Z" on screen bottom mean? I thought the seller says he's got the warranty card on the tube. ...Tom

I sure hope this gets bid on.

RetroHacker 01-31-2008 09:35 PM

That's strange. The auction title changed to reflect what Rental Limo said. I guess whoever listed the TV is also on AK.

Well, I'm still going for it :)
