The Vintage Hitachi I-49 Transistor Television CRT TV Receiver 9's design harkens back to a bygone era, its angular curves and chunky form factor reminiscent of the 1970s. This console TV, measuring 9 inches diagonally, is not only a piece of retro technology but also a fine piece of design history.
