Transvision Kit in TeleKit Cabinet

(click on picture for high resolution image)

(1946 - 7 inch kit)

The Transvision company sold this kit and a matching cabinet. This set was put in a cabinet made by TeleKit. 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. 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.
