What other obscure brands of television am I ignorant of (he asked, with
more than a touch of sarcasm)?

I don't know. Why don't you list the ones you DO remember, then go
here http://www.tvhistory.tv/1950-59-ALL-USA.htm to fill in the
blanks? FYI: They list 104 TV manufacturers for the years 1950-1959,
running from A (Admiral) to Z (Zenith).

I should have realized the name was legit, when one of the characters
started bragging about his Leica IIIf, the penultimate of the Leica
screw-thread cameras.
