I had a recycler that looked like a dude out of a movie. Old man missing teeth, old 70s red truck with phone number spray painted on it. He even had young me tally retarded helper.

He came and took a few appliances from my place along with some scrap metal I then learned that tvs were scrapped for 10 cents a pound. I got ride of three crts no problem.

so i have collection of old CRT tvs,

I got a sony trinitron from the 1980's that i grew up with. Here is the crazy thing it only went up to channel 36

I also remember Al bundy on married with children used the same remote for forever as a prop.



I found that photo on a ebay listing just minutes before someone bought it for 90 dollars

Growing up i had a little emerson in my room. Then it started acting up so i got a cool white round GE tv but that only lasted like 2 years so in early 2001 i got another sony trinitron FLAT SCREEN. I remember it was like 320 dollars and only mono sound. In 2008 my 93 year old aunt took over my room and she loved that little tv said it was the best one in the house and in the evening she would watch those talent shows where people sing.

Some how I ended up with this.



Weight alot.

Wega my friend got it from someone, I made the mistake of admiring it now it sits in my living room unused and un loved.
