Humphrey is a stack of 10 vintage 50s television that have been retrofitted with modern LCD screens and playback units. Humphrey is of course named after Humphrey Bogart!
Just supply 10 USB sticks with an MP4 video on each, plug them into the back of each screen and away they go.
As they have modern electronics inside they are capable of showing colour video which 50s TVs could not do. So we recommend the footage you show on this is black and white to keep the aesthetic. However, it is entirely your choice! You can see we have two images here showing the screens with colour or black and white footage.
Since this retro TV stack uses modern LCD screens, the power usage is relatively low at just 3A so the entire stack is perfectly fine being plugged into a single mains socket.
The stack is 1.53m Wide, 1.9m Tall and 0.7m Deep.
