The TV that Kitty Watches
Can anyone who was around in 1950, or who knows about the history of TV sets, comment on the TV set on which Kitty Moran watches her husband performing with Gloria? (Kitty is in their apt with the baby, watching as Gloria stands in for her.)
The TV is a beautiful wooden box, with a lid that, when lifted up, reveals a screen. From the side the lid seems to open only to about 45 degrees, which indicates that the Cathode Ray Tube may be in the box, facing upwards, and maybe there is a mirror in the lid, reflecting the image?
What a cool-looking device. Did such an early "projection TV" actually exist? Who would have manufactured it?
Thanks!
