Surviving Rare Postwar TV Set Database

 

In this database we hope to show the number of surviving examples of the rarest postwar sets. Our criteria for sets in this list is that they have a value of at least $500 to $1000. If you have one of these sets, or think that a set you have should be included, please contact us.

This database is very incomplete, so don't rely on these quantities as being accurate. As we get more data, it will be more reflective of the number of each of these sets that survive.
