I'm old enough to remember most of these and even used a few. I still want a Philco Predicta.

One set that wasn't included was the Sylvania Halolight TV from the mid 50s. They were B&W, and had a white florescent ring around the picture tube. We had one, and it was kind of unique. It was suppose to be easier on the eyes, as it had white light around the screen. People back then were worried about eye strain as they watched TV.
