Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 14″ ad with a picture of a young boy very excited as he stands next to the channel changer on the International Modern with a massive 27-inch screen for $595.00. This was one of the sets from “Magnificent Magnavox television” that were available at this time. They were referring to this set as the “Greatest Television Achievement In Years”. The ad text calls it a “New Form Factor in Magnavox design gives you 27-inch TV screen in compact cabinet sealed to grace the average-size room!”. The ad text mentions many reasons why the Magnavox sets were better, the one thing that strikes my fancy is “The Magnavox All-Channel UHF tuner is readily installed within the cabinet”.
