Predicta in Baretta

I spied a Predicta Holiday in an Episode of Baretta S01Ep09 "the Mansion". It is the front of a TV and Radio service shop. I believe there is an Admiral next to the "Open" sign as well. Although I could be wrong.

I love spotting old sets on old TV shows. The Predicta's were only about 15 years old at this time. I remember, even in the early '80's, the '56 GE portable TV in my grandparents front porch didn't seem very old. I wish I had it now. Long gone.

OT: what are Predictas worth roughly. I have a pair of them and don't have a particular interest in either.

Condition? I had the 17" (?) running about 25 years ago and the CRT was bright, but some caps started sizzling so I shut her down. I also have the original Philco stand for this one.

The 23" (?) I had running for a few minutes about the same time but the raster was a bit dim, but it also looked overscanned so it likely had low HV.

I have to clear out room and I'd like to list them on Craigs or FB Marketplace soon.

eBay sold listings will give you an idea of max value. In a classifieds venue with no or limited shipping knock 30-60% off the max value.

Hi John. Do you still have the Predicta's and what part of the country do you call home? (I'm in the greater Tampa Bay, Florida area)

Waterbury Connecticut.


I have the 23" yet, my oldest son expressed interest in the 17" so that's on hold for now.
