Whoa, that is some “mote”, the grandfather of all remotes! I’ve never seen this before. I wonder if very many buyers bit at this one, probably not or its existence would be more commonly known.
My grandparents bought a new Zenith console TV in 1956 that had what I always thought was one of the first remote controls. It had a box about the size of the Philco Mystery Control, that was a duplicate of the tv controls, but this bad boy also had a cable that connected it to the set, running across the floor, not especially handy.
