My parents bought their first tv in 1952, the year I was born. It was an RCA and we had that thing until I was nearly out of high school. :-)

things use to be built to last, now they're built for the recycle heap after a few years.....

By the standards of the time, that's a friggin' big screen!

The conventions are far from boring to a great many people...and back then before the mind-erasing garbage that we have now to watch, it was definitely the most exciting thing to see.

Some TV's last these days..I purchased a 27-inch Sony in 1997, and it still works great (it's just about obsolete, but still works...)
