Evolution of Television 1920-2020

[JustBonee]

our first tv was the size of a buick and only got b&w. one station to watch, howdydoody, captain kangaroo, cisco kid, and flash gordon..

Had one of those in 1949 .... wrestling seemed to be dominant back then ..lol



I really love the new TVs ... the ones they make for power outages during storms.

I have this 14" battery powered one below. It has the best picture and sound quality! I was amazed when I got it.

I have my gigantic "smart" flat screen sitting atop an old Zenith console which weighs a ton. My son was going to take it but after filling the back of the truck with drums, guitars and amps there was no room. So, both will be left behind upon commencement of the great escape.

Got one of those so called "smart TV's". (sigh) Not sure we've advanced any. Give me an old fashioned Hi-Fi anytime

My mom and older sister loved wrestling back then.
