What would you pay

One elephant on a unicycle , it wouldn't be worth more than that even if you had 3 jobs and daddy made millions apart from winter when there was bad weather which was unusual for winter bad weather.

Looking like I could fetch 3-5 grand for it

Which would do a lot for my projects.

And Anthony even posted in a thread that he had been placed on his ignore list anyway.

If it is a Continental A65 it should go for up to 5000.00 if it is well restored.

Good lord where did you find that.

I remember watching those test patterns by the hour during the early days of TV. "Our programing has experienced some difficulty. Please stand by."

The magic ignore list
You should know I will always take the mickey out of a bull excrement merchant.
For example Haplo having me on his ignore list doesn't stop me from writing that he doesn't know scripture when he goes into "christian" mode

Magic

Technically speaking, the Indian head with "please stand by" written on it, was not a test pattern, as the writing covered important details.

Here is a link to a test pattern page: http://www.meldrum.co.uk/mhp/testcard/ It mainly covers European cards, as the Amercians were the first who to broadcast 24/7, here we used them much longer mostly during the night break.
Here are some from the bw era: http://www.tv-testbild.com/html/bw.htm
and from the color era: http://www.tv-testbild.com/html/color.htm

Speaking of stand-by cards, these were pretty cool:

(I love test cards
