Yes those Packard Bell models were gorgeous. Here are a few more exquisite beauties from Curtis Mathes during her golden age; 1959 to 1969. http://curtismathes.webs.com/

_________________
After I graduated from College in 1982 and I worked for Zenith in their radio design department, and also did some freelancing work for Curtis Mathes in Console design from the years 1982 to 1984. It was always a joy to help lay out a new console television design and see it take form. There was always much more freedom in design at Curtis Mathes so by the mid 1980’s I worked for them exclusively. I worked for the Curtis Mathes Company exclusively from the years 1986 to 1991 as a console television and stereo designer.
