My most recent acquisition
The most recent addition to my collection: this cute small console made by Philips in March of 1961. 21 inch screen. Philips has a long History here in Brazil, it started selling radios sometime around 1927 I believe. Prior to this set the older Philips in my collection was a hybrid portable from the early 70's. I have been dying for years to have a Philips TV from the 50's or early 60's and now my wish has been fulfilled. This particular model must be pretty rare: in 12 years collecting vintage TVs I have seen a reasonable number of Philips TV sets from the 1950's and 60's and have NEVER seen such a model except in a magazine advertisement of 1960.
