While it’s hardly the best thing to watch Game of Thrones on, this 1930 Baird Televisor is still expected to sell for up to £15,000 ($19,731).
It will star in Bonhams' Important Instruments of Science & Technology auction in London on October 31.

The lot is the first TV ever publicly sold. It’s number 192 of the 1,000 made.
The picture was not much bigger than a postage stamp and closely resembles an ultrasound scan.
It cost £26 ($34) on its release, around £1,550 ($2,037) in today’s money.
The Televisor was obsolete a few years later, but remains a hugely desirable collector’s item.
