There was a scam to turn your black & white TV to a color set...it was a vinyl film that was placed on the tube. It was horrible for except for us kids watching cartoons.

Good Lord!!

It was made by Eastman. The Kodak and Eastman Eastman??

I wonder what it cost in today’s dollars and how many people bought it.

I find indirectly and directly the most fascinating info on this site :)

I figure there’s about 3 generations on the board.

I’m 52 and I tell the 30 years olds about when I was a kid like them :)

I remember seeing those vinyl sheets for sale at Woolworth in Little Rock back in 1968!
