Consider how TV manufacturers of the 40s-50s seemed to be not trying to outdo each other on price so much, but making larger screen sizes, skinny backs, portability and talking up performance. Muntz and some others not withstanding.
It was only when there was a race to bring new features to market (color - think bad flybacks or 23EGP22 rectangular CRTs here) or cutting costs such as printed circuit boards, you had the epic warranty fails, etc.
