1958
- Television Receiver
Video:Artur Agostinho talks about the rules of behavior and use of the "Metropolitano de Lisboa" (Lisbon subway).
Philco bet heavily on the design of its creations, the Predicta line has become one of the brand's icons. This model contained a first embryo of the remote control, the screen (which is also rotatable) could be placed at the ideal distance for the viewer, being connected to the tuner by a flexible cable of 7.5 meters, this could be positioned close to the viewer. This model became known as "Penthouse", the stereo version was called "Tandem". It became popular in bars, because the tuner was placed behind the counter, avoiding discussions about which channel to watch.
