Transvision Kit

 

(click on picture for high resolution image)

(1946 - 7 inch kit)

The Transvision kit was available both with and without a cabinet. This is the factory-supplied cabinet. The set was made with many prewar and WW2 parts, probably because they were available at very low cost in 1946. Very few of these sets survive. This has been restored to working condition. It has a 7 inch picture tube and a 5 channel tuner. Click here for some technical details of this unusual set. Restoration of  this set is now complete.
