same philco set my dad bought back in 1966.tuning bars and it had a fine picture for the first couple years.it started fade and mr thompson would come and jolt it once a year.10 dollar service call.i posted before that spanky mcfarland was working for philco back than and he made an appearance at sun tv.dad made it short and sweet for the sales rep."i want the best set you have,i am paying cash today and i also want a discount for this reason.this will be your easiest sale today.you wont make as much commission but you will move a unit."loved my dad.class act until his untimely death when i was a teenager
