I spotted what looks to be an early 1950s TV in a local antique/junk shop. The tuner is on the back of the set (may be a band 3 converter). Old TVs aren't my "thing" and I don't think I would have the patience or skill to fix a set as old as this, not to mention the complications of needing a standards convertor. Price tag is a very optimistic £75, though I have had one or two good value radios from this shop.
