If you look at a 1950s/60s RCA Victor color tv, either 21" round or rectangular crt set that has been serviced correctly, I think you would be extremely impressed with the picture quality. In fact, honestly, I think the picture is better than almost any new tv. The color depth and picture sharpness is excellent. When my brother came to visit a few weeks ago he was stunned with the picture quality of my RCA CTC15 from 1964. This is not because he was surprised that a 1960s tv had a relatively nice picuture, its because it was a perfect razor sharp picture that looked better than his 32" sony trinitron. That's the truth. He could care less about the old tvs but seeing the picture changed his thoughts about how good they really were. Dont underestimate old tv technology untill you have seen it with your own eyes. The old tvs are built with care and quality. I appreciate them as they are built in USA and most of all they look good and are fun to restore.
