#1 - a set with low controls sitting on the floor? What home decorating magazine dreamed this up?

#5 looks like an early Motorola color set built into a custom highboy cabinet (??)

The first one mysteriously sitting on the floor is definitely a '55 GE. Not certain about the rest, but I'm sure somebody will peg the fourth one down. Its distinctive knob layout is familiar, but I can't place the brand.

#4 could be Stewart-Warner, Radio Craftsman or possibly CONRAC. The color set may be an Andrea. Andrea did advertise a color set for custom installation.

I vote Sears... They sold a rebranded CTC-12 in a cheap black metal cabinet like that. It's definitely a CTC-12 (or possibly an early 15), but it's not an RCA label.

The knob configuration on #4 looks like Magnavox to me.

Wow, those pics are a treat to look at. I had forgotten about those wild asthetics - not so much the look of the TV's, but the asthetics around the TV's.

Better pull out my Bulova Accutron Spaceview, it matches perfectly!
