We're located in Northern New Jersey, near Paramus and Paterson, NJ, about 
15 miles west of the Geo Wash Bridge & 60 miles east of Pennsylvania, off I80.


 
  
We have been selling Vintage TVs worldwide Since 1984, 
         
and we have been "COLOR Converting" Vintage TVs Since 1989!
Our customers enjoy using these COLOR Conversions in their Kitchens, Dens, Rec-Rooms, and 1950's living rooms. Plus, they make great Show stoppers and display pieces! Vintage TVs are nostalgic and entertaining, and they can serve as dependable, working color Televisions.
     
     You can see our sets
in the Movies including Lovely Bones, Revolutionary Road, Secret Life of Bees, Angels in America, Never Forever, Dan Rather Remembers, Life Aquatic, The Water is Wide, American Dreams, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Liberty Heights, Avalon, the Quiz Show, Dead Presidents, Mighty Joe Young, the Truman Movie, and many others.
     
     Plus, our 
COLOR Conversions

   are in many Museums, Exhibits and Displays across the USA, Canada and overseas,
including: Google, the USGA, Universal Orlando, Smithsonian, Route 66, and in Animations; 
   in TV Shows & Commercials, plus Advertisements for
FOX News, ESPN, Disney Imagineering, ABC-News, Dateline, Disney Network, Jockey, VH1, HBO, MTV, Nick at Nite, Sony, and lots more!

You can buy from us with confidence!

  We do NOT "restore" vintage televisions: Tube TVs are just too unreliable! 

     However, we can "Retro-fit" many vintage TVs with a modern color picture tube and chassis, 
                        which is controlled via a remote control (our "COLOR Conversion").

                              
Many of our TV sets are available, set-up as:

   
Prop / As Found: Complete vintage TV with picture tube, knobs and trim (not working).

   
Empty Prop: Empty cabinet with knobs and trim (no picture tube & no chassis inside).

   
Working: Complete vintage TV, still working (not restored or repaired).

 
24 Frame: Needed for certain movie filming requirements.  Sets marked:  w/Vert Hold
    
              have RCA Jacks and S-Video, & can be synched for 24 frame playback.

   COLOR Conversion: These are Retrofitted with a modern color CRT & chassis inside, 
                  and use a remote control. They have Coax, RCA Jacks, and S-Video inputs.
                        
(Remember,
COLOR Conversions take 2-4 weeks to set-up!)
               
All Color Conversions have a 60 day repair/replacement limited warranty.
