Since television was still experimental in the 1930s, there were few stores where they might be purchased. It would not be until the late 1930s when TVs were sold in any department stores. Because the medium of television was so new (in 1939, there was one channel in New York, for example, and it only operated on a limited schedule), the sets were expensive. The typical price could be as much as seven or eight hundred dollars. Few people bought them at that time. It was the late 1940s when television finally became popular in the USA and the price of the sets came down.
