This restored photo is from the cover of a 1948 decorating magazine which featured "The television viewing room of the future", and emphasizing indirect lighting. The display was by Sylvania and was in New York City. Does anybody recognise this TV? It may have been a dummy for the display, but an inside photo shows it turned on with a test pattern on the screen.

My collection's focus is primarily the early 1950's and before, with a few later items of exceptional interest.

Here is a list of the televisions in my collection, with basic specifications. Some models may be clicked on to view a photo or for more information. These items are not for sale. My hope is to generate a number of contacts with which to discuss this facinating hobby. Thanks for checking it out!
