I have a Setchell Carlson at home. It is quite unusual in that the cabinet is a veneered one like we often see in radios I think it is Mahogany veneer but could be mistaken. The unusual part is the shape of the set. the top corners are quite rounded which is very unusual for TV. I am missing the escutcheon that went on the front and I don’t think the knobs are right. The flyback transformer has a winding that is broken where it enters the coil, it isn’t burnt but it might be a delicate job to try to pick up the end of the winding. Otherwise it is intact and has a unitized chassis.
this website never really got off the ground but I still have a picture of it here
