My dad bought a used Curtis Mathes from his boss, much to the disapproval of my mother! The first thing we watched on it was an ABC Tuesday Movie of the Week...The Night Stalker, with Darren McGavin! A very magical and scary night!

Curtis Mathis always flaunted its four year warranty, and that its quality would assure it lasted longer. But the TVs costly price was its undoing as competitors were making smaller sets that were more affordable. This may have been the Benz of TVs back then, but most people cannot afford a Benz.

I have a Curtis Mathis vacuum tube pulled from an old TV that I use in my amp. It sounds great.

41 years even the younger actors are no longer around.

We had a Curtis mathes when I was in grade school and high school. I used to volunteer at Curtis mathes in my hometown and work on many sets.

Back in the days when those tvs took 4 people to bring it the the house and a VCR weighed 50 pounds

I turned the knobs to make Spiderman bright orange, and my parents beated me. I am sad.

EXCELLENT

Sweet

Nowadays planned obsolescence is baked in every electronic gadget sold...what a waste.

Curtis Mathis guy didn't look that old...did someone name the company after him when he was a kid?

my grandparents had a delux curtis Mathes Wood console tv...it weighed about the same as a buick...the last gasp of build a better product..since then its been build a cheaper product in china and guatamala. change is, more often than not, for the worse..the species is devolving

Their latter years marketing gimmick consisted of heavily jacking the prices of rebranded foreign electronics up, selling consumers on their own extended warranty. Clever, but you weren't getting anything better.

They never even made anything. Zenith made their tvs lol.

It's not worth it
