Re: How it's made. 1950's Televisions
Most 'color' american 'tube' sets use a mains transformer. I think the mono ones are a mixed bag, certainly less live ('hot') chassis sets than in the uk where it's almost a given that they are. There seemed to be a liking for metal-cabinet sets as well, (on a 2-pin cable!) either with a wood grain photo transfer or some 50's garish coloured enamel paint job.
