Three parallel rows (RGB) of brilliant LEDs totalling 198 in all in a vertical assembly. See 1st pic. The required video bandwidth is 240 KHz. The late Karen Orton made a Timing Corrector, which in addition to other tasks converges the reflections of the red, green and blue LED rows.

The assembly is so bright it's probably dangerous to look at directly, though is fine when spread out into a reflected raster by the mirror screw.

Here's another scene from Andy's book: 2nd pic. What's the date? About 1958?
