Best TV Repair Book?

I've got several of these from the 50's, 60's, some of the Art Margolis books, etc. but few seem to offer many of the helpful 'kinks' that Sams (for example) gave in some of their bulletins, which I suppose, were factory recommendations.
Are there a couple that you've found especially helpful? I see these on eBay all the time for little $$ but I hate to further clutter up things on some bound paper that I'll have little use for.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Michael

Thumbs up

TELEVISION SIMPLIFIED, by Milton S. Kiver.

First published in 1946 and revised regularly through the fifties, sixties, & seventies. The earlier editions are black & white only, but are invaluable when restoring a set of that era. Later editions cover solid state & color, so are also essential. I have two: the third edition, published in 1952, and the seventh edition, published in 1973. I refer regularly to both of them.


PRACTICAL TELEVISION SERVICING AND TROUBLE SHOOTING MANUAL, by Coyne Electrical & Radio-Television School, is also excellent. It was first published in 1949, and was regularly updated into the fifties.
