Introduced in the Fall of 1960 and sold through 1961, the CTC10 Chassis was used in eleven different cabinet styles.

Four cabinet styles had different model names with and without remote control. Two other cabinet styles ("Stanwyck" and "Wynnewood") were available only with the seven-function remote control.

For the first time, a model was introduced in the Early American Maple style (the "Fairhaven" with remote control or the "Monticello" without remote control).

Also for the first time, a combination deluxe full-door color console ("Cunningham") was made available with a Stereo Victrola and AM-FM Stereo Tuner. The unit featured a 46 watt audio amplifier with six speakers.

One model, the "Paterson", with its unique protruding CRT-bell enclosure, was a holdover CTC9 model.

The original CTC10 consumer brochure was purchased on ebay (for your enjoyment) with cost no object (your donations will be appreciated). Don Kent did his usual excellent PhotoShop editing of these images.
