Brings back lots of childhood memories. We all did not realize what we had. Took it for granted. By the time 1975 rolled around, and my friends and relatives started buying VW Beetles, Fiat Spiders, and Toyotas, I knew back then we were finished.
After that the Sony TVs and other electronics were the only available. 1984 was the last RCA TV made here.
