Re: Restorer's dream.
It looks in a heck of a state - quite beyond redemption in fact, but then knowing Colin, the more hopeless a restoration may seem to be, the greater the challenge, and hence, the greater the attraction, as witnessed by his restoration of a Philco 84B which featured on the following pages in the Bull after the Harpy auction pics.
Frankly, fro the dilapidated state of it, that TV looks like the type of thing that someone would take to an event, hoping against hopes that they won't have to cart it back home again, but then that can be said of a lot of the stuff that we individually find appealing to our own sphere of interest.
It didn't have a visible auction ticket on it, so it's not evident whether it was entered into the aution, sold or unsold. It certainly doesn't appear in list on the auction results page for October 2010 Harpy - the only TV I could spot in the list was a 14" 405 line Bush, which realised £12.00.
Happy days!
