Our first TV

Television came to Malaysia in 1963 but my family did not get one right away as they were expensive. I remember asking a neighbour if I could watch an episode of Batman. He allowed me but sent his son to his room to study. It was a bit awkward so I never asked again. So I pestered my dad to buy a TV. Eventually he got this Hitachi at a good price from a dealer acquaintance of his. It served us well for many years.

The screen shows the final credits of a show made in Pinewood Studios which might have been The Saint, or less likely, The Champions.
