(1946 - 7 inch kit)
The Transvision kit was available both with and without a cabinet. This is the factory-supplied cabinet. The set was made with many pre-1945 and WW2 parts, probably because they were available at very low cost in 1946. Very few of these sets survive. This set has been restored to working condition. It has a 7 inch picture tube and a 5 channel tuner. Here is information about Transvision, technical details and Rider technical information. Here is a Transvision field strength meter from the same era.
