My first TV experience was at a relatives house in 1953. His TV looked like an old Edison phonograph cabinet. A box about 2 ft square and 4 ft tall. The picture tube was mounted facing upright and the picture was reflected from a mirror, mounted in the underside of the lid. The lid was proped up at a 45 degree angle for viewing.
