Description
Black and white 10″ x 13 1/2″ ad that wants you to know about the “Super Son-R 19” from Admiral. They tout this as “The remote control portable you have dreamed about. It’s excitingly new, luggage-light, has quality features found in no other TV set. Wireless Super Son-R not only turns the TV on, changes channels and adjusts the volume from across the room – it also turns the TV completely off. Unlike other remote controls, no tubes are left burning inside the set!. Yet a miracle control center in the TV stays on constant alert, ready to receive your next Sun-R signal. No buttons to push, no knobs to turn at the set ever!”. There is a drawing of this remote control unit being held up toward the TV and it does seem to be somewhat different from the ones that are in existence now.
