Television came to America as a product of World War II technology. By 1960 just about everybody had some sort of television in their home. Some had a 12 black and white portable one with rabbit ears for an antenna. Others had a "big" t.v. with a 16 inch screen. Then come along color t.v. where the set was put in a console to make it look more like a piece of furniture. Man that was really "up town". There was even an outside antenna. Some of the shows back then included: I Love Lucy, Ford Theatre, Loretta Young Theatre, Ed Sullivan's Variety Show, and Bonanza. WOW!!
