Are these vintage television set ads from the '40s, '50s or '60s?

The box, the telly, the small screen, the TV. No matter what you call the thing that plays your favorite shows from H&I everyday, there's no denying that television is a part of our everyday lives, and has been for decades and decades.

With as much television we consume on a daily basis, it's hard to believe there was a time when advertising for television sets was a relatively new topic. Today, we get emails, see social media ads and even see commercials on the TV, about the TV! At one point in time, advertisements for television sets were fairly simple, but competition started to heat up in the Forties.
