No relation between this and Setchel Carlson. SC typically used a single large motherboard chassis and many daughter board chassis that connected with straight line terminals and a couple of mounting bolts (the bolts weren't essential unless you're shipping it and intend to have the chassis sideways or upside down). I've got a couple of old topics on their color sets with good pictures here on videokarma if you want to see a SC set.

There were at least three other makes with modular tube chassis out there but SC was the only make that did it on all their TVs throughout the tube era...the others either tried it on one year of chassis and gave up, or were such small makes they didn't survive long. There was no common module standard between makes AFAIK.
