Ralph's and Norton's TV?

An RCA TV, ebay item #110057958145 is claimed to be [or be like?] the set used as a prop in 'The Honeymooners.' I doubt this for a couple of reasons:

That show was first on The Dumont Network, and later moved to CBS. In either case the set would probably have been a Dumont or a CBS Columbia/Air King, but I doubt it was an RCA.

Neither Alan Dumont or William Paley had any great love for David Sarnoff and I don't think either would have allowed an RCA set to appear in one of their network's programs as a prop.
~Unless of course the script called for it to explode. ;^) ;^) HARRUMPH!
