Step back into TV history with this Pilot TV-37, one of the first portable consumer televisions, manufactured in 1948 by Pilot Radio Corp. Long Island City, NY. This set powers on -the tubes glow and crackle, and a bright dot of light appears on the 3-inch screen (see photos). Beyond that, it is untested for reception or operation. 14.5″ W x 9.5″ H x 14 D. Original cord present, all four knobs intact. Shows scratches, scuffs, and age-related wear consistent with a 75+ year-old set (see photos for full condition). The Pilot TV-37 is highly collectible due to its unique compact design and status as one of the first affordable post-war TVs. Even as a display piece, these are sought after by collectors and mid-century enthusiasts alike.
I have plug this device in and dose power on. Have not done a full test on this device “lack of knowledge”.

It doesn’t have its back panel, but the bottom of the wooden housing is marked with “CM 3051″, so I believe this is a model 3051 from around 1939. It powers on enough to light up and some of the tubes light up, but I’m not getting any sound from it. It does need a new power cord, as the current one has a few damaged spots and exposed wiring. The speaker fabric is not original, and in my opinion, I think this radio would look better with a different fabric! The writing on the faces of the buttons have worn off and aren’t fully legible. I don’t have a back panel for the radio. There are scuffs, scratches, and small stains scattered throughout. Will come as shown, so please see photos! MEASUREMENTS: This radio measures approximately 11 1/2″ wide, 7″ front-to-back, and 9 1/2 tall at furthest points. Carrier available to your zip code than what is listed first.
