I like that Director ad with the colors shooting through the TV. Do you happen to know what magazine that's from? I have seen another Director ad with a family dressed all in white standing by a white Christmas tree -- and of course the TV is displaying glorious color.

Phil,

I changed my previous reply. Didn't think it would be helpful. Looks like you were able to see it. The CTC-4 ad was from LIFE Magazine a mid 1955 issue if I recall. I see them on e-bay often.
