I used to worry about what women would think when they saw my home, but it turned out that none of them ever see it at all so I might as well be true to myself and collect all the My Little Ponies.

My (now) wife freaked out coming to my apartment the first time. Turns out, she's a huge Rush fan:

In my living room at the time:

All I hear is "Eeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

70% sure she just married me for the TV.

The other 30% was the Dreamcast.

Edit: Where can I get a TV exactly like that? I assume you had to hunt for years and/or restore?

If you got money and really want something like it there's eBay as an option potentially.

You're looking for a Philco Television

Good luck! If you don't have money to light on fire you might just have to accept the dream won't become reality.

Some people also make art pieces either with or just as smaller reproductions. So that could be an option if you want something just aesthetically pleasing but still will be pricey.

Edit: I know that eBay link isn't the exact same model but I'm like 99% it is a philco TV on the album cover
