Bally Arcade/Astrocade Displayed on 1956 Admiral Super Cascade TV. Posted to Astrocade Discussion Group by Matt Pilz. September 9, 2021. When Matt Pilz posted these three pictures, here: "Current state of Composite/S-Video/RGB mods?" Thread he wrote: "A couple years back I picked up a 1950s B&W Admiral console set in great despair. Rather than gutting it and turning it into some lifeless exhibit, I went down the rabbit hole of learning vintage television repair. Six months later and a lot of painstaking work I managed to restore it back to original factory condition. I love old B&W sets especially from the 40s-60s. "And yes, the Bally works just great on it via direct RF coaxial, virtually no noise ??. A 65 year old set running a 43 year old game console in the year 2021 is pretty awesome."

I am part of various vintage CRT/TV groups and it's becoming more common to consider any tube TV to be vintage since even late model ones are approaching 20 years old, while others consider pre-2000s the cut-off point. Groups specific to “antiques” are more tailored to 1940s-1960s sets. It’s always fun pairing era-matched TVs with systems to get the purest sense of what it was like using it at the time. I recently picked up a 1978 colored Sony Trinitron and repaired it to working order, as well as a 1982 Panasonic composite computer monitor that works great on these 70s-80s systems. "The 1956 Admiral in those photos is still going strong. I have added additional even older ones to my collection since then, as recently as last weekend. The photo attached shows my current Admiral sets. The portable on top is also a 1956, while the bakelite styles are 1948-1949 models. They all need full servicing and recaps before they will even power on, but the CRTs test very strong in all of them so I am confident with enough time I will be able to restore them all! Finding time on the other hand..."
