Maryellen's Television Console
Maryellen's Television Console was introduced to Maryellen's Collection in 2015 and retired in 2019. Retail cost was $85.
Television Console
Light brown faux wood plastic console base. Gold frame with clear plastic TV screen on left side of console. Two matching gold dials. Right side has a cabinet door that opens; a brown faux record player pops down. Bottom part of console has two faux red speakers with gold frames and a shelf with non-removable red encyclopedias. Silver metallic antenna on top of television.
The console acts as a specialized case for certain iPad models, to be used with the Maryellen TV Console app. When used with the app, moving the antenna will intentionally make the video fuzzy to replicate a real TV. When pressed, the black buttons on the record player will rotate through the records' songs on the TV.
Dimensions, including antenna, are 13 1/2" high x 11 3/4" wide x 4 1/4" deep.
Bonsai Tree
Decorative bonsai tree in a light blue rectangular pot. Light brown faux sand at bottom of pot. Brown tree with white flowers and green leaves.
Records
Three black records with stickers. One has a white, green, and blue sticker along with some black music notes, and it is labelled "Let's Stroll." Another has a pink, yellow, and blue sticker with "Ice Cream Dreams" written at the top and a line of music at the bottom. The final record has a white and purple sticker and is labelled as "Soda Shop Hop." All have "45 RPM" written on them to indicate the size of the vinyl.
Record Sleeves
Three record sleeves. One is white with green, pink, and yellow swirl patterns and black dots. Another has a yellow background and abstract art in shades of pink, white, green, and black. The final record sleeve has a white background with a pattern of blue and green circles.
Screen Card
A reversible paper card comes with the iPad holder inside of the TV. This has instructions for how to download the app that goes with the TV. It also has two black-and-white screens, one on each side of the card, that can be used with the TV. One side has a photo of Maryellen with Scooter along with a description of Maryellen's favorite TV shows. The other side has the words "Stay Tuned" and "American Girl Television," along with a historical explanation of this test pattern; stations would only air programs for part of the day and would air this test pattern at night.
