I had this huge B&W TV that was supposed to be a “portable”. The only thing portable about it was the suitcase handle on the top. It must’ve weighed near a hundred pounds. You didn’t dare try to use the handle. for one thing, it took two hands to lift, and for another, that silly handle might not be strong enough to hold. It was too heavy to set on a card table. It lasted for years and years. It never once needed a repair. I don’t know what finally happened to it. Probably sold it in a garage sale for a couple bucks. The picture was not very good. Even when new it was kinda blurry and always had at least one ghost.
Ha, I just thought of something. Tell a kid these days that in the old days B&W TVs had ghosts and watch their expression.
Can’t imagine my daughter’s reaction if I showed her my TV. She thinks I am ancient anyway and says I still live in the 80’s because of my music.
