[Thursday] Sometimes a TV is just awesome

[David Crowell]

 Stromberg Carlson made several designs available for the "Chinese Classic" TV cabinet. Here are a few. 
You can see in the first link, the design is more than just painted on. The center is raised. These are the doors from the TV cabinet that someone saved and used as a wall hanging.The other two are ads from magazines. These date from the early 1950's and must have cost a bundle.

These are hand painted and very nice as shown. Each panel is sized 33.5" x 13.5" and is composed of wood.
