Hi
I was wondering if you TV guys could take a look at this post in link below, and confirm if the badge was intended to be used for a 21 inch TV.

In the realm of KB Radios there don't appear to be any which use this brass and enamel type of badge after 1960. But then there were not many large wooden radios made after 1960 apart from radiograms, but probably plenty of larger TV's were being made.

Thanks
Mike

Hi
Well its been a week now and no one seems to have ever seen one of these badges on a KB 21 inch TV, I wonder if there was such a TV made, and when.

I have a leaflet for a high-end console, the LFT100(?) Interestingly it must have come out in 1954 or 1955 as the Band III tuner was only capable of receiving channels 8 and 9, coil sets not being available until there was confirmation of what frequencies were to be used for ITV.

That must have been a very early 21" set and I can imagine KB wanting to show off about it; but sadly the leaflet shows no badges on the set!
