Saved, to glorify God.
My grandson, a very prosperous and reputable contractor,
got a call to a big millionaires mansion on Bainbridge Island
that had just been sold and the new owner wanted the
TV removed. What's the problem?
The TV (worked) had been built into the brick or stone wall of the room. It was a late 1950's
COLOR, SQUARE , SIXTY TWO INCH CRT TV, with all analog wiring and dozens of vacuum tubes!
Unless it was custom- made for the former rich homeowner, I can find no record that such a huge CRT TV ever existed!
Anyone know where to look, i searched antique and vintage TV LISTINGS on Google. He said the maker of the TV was a common US name but he cant remember it. He said it was HUGE going way back into the special wall that was built for it. They had to break it up to get it out. The new owner didn't care that it was destroyed.
I said it should have had an access panel to adjust it and change tubes, and he said it did but it was not large enough to take the TV out.
