Hmm, I thought so!
The fake wood-grain look seemed to be popular in the 80's and into the 90's, and this doesn't have it, so I figured it was either before the fad, or some off-beat thing that didn't follow the styling conventions of the time.
CalGen: I guess Canada still has analog OTA broadcasts, no? I wish they hadn't discontinued it down here, as I now have a pile of portable TVs that are completely useless as TVs (they might still be somewhat useful as tiny, almost illegible monitors for a vintage computer of some sort, but that would be pointless as larger, non-portable TVs are far superior for that job). My favorite from the stack is a nice, COLOR TV that looks like it was from the 80's. It looks somewhat like this.
Too bad I can't use it for it's original purpose anymore :,(
