Here's something fun to have around the house. The world's (or maybe just the UK's) oldest working television! I thought we had the world's oldest TV at my dad's house when I was a kid (10 buttons, one for every channel we got), but it turns out there actually is one more aged. This 1936 model produced by Marconi (yes, that Marconi) is on the block at auctioneer Bonham's, where it's expected to go for �5000 at the very least. That's if everyone doesn't use up all their money on this full-sized polar bear automaton.Source: http://www.crunchgear.com/2011/04/04/want-to-buy-the-uks-oldest-working-television-you-can/
