I read that the Komet TV's had a remote controlled swivel base so you can oreient the cabinet for best viewing.Would have liked to see that work!Also the set had a mono Hi-fi system built into it.

Help Support :
the very early TV's had electrostatic deflection-like most oscilloscopes so they were limited to the small screens.Magnetic deflection-the magnetic deflection yokes allowed for TV's to have larger screens.Also in the early sets they didn't have the higher voltage power supplies later TV's had with larger CRTs.

Sampler?
What is the "sampler"? Looks like it might be a tube tester.

BBC 'Sigma' fridge? I'm guessing that's not the broadcaster?
Don't know, but I assume this BBC was Brown, Boveri & Company.

Isn't Electrum also the name for gold plated silver?
