I live in Long Island and have several Zeniths from my childhood:
The 5619 Chassis from a 6S52 given to me in 1967
A 1948 6G001 Portable that I found in the Town Dump in the early 70s
A 1948 4G800 "Zenette" given to me by a neighbor in 1970
A 1957 M723 AM - FM given to me by a neighbor in 1973
An early 60s Zenith J512 give to me by a neighbor in 1967

In addition, I fixed a neighbor's Owl Eye as a kid (Filter Cap), Another black Dial (Shutter Dial, Cant remember the model, it was in the late 70s.

Zenith TVs were popular around here; I have fixed many.

So, they were relatively popular. However, there was quite a bit of competition. Zenith was built in Chicago, RCA in Camden, NJ; Philco in Philadelphia, PA; Emerson and several other brands in Long Island City, NY, GE in Schenectady, NY. These were the most popular brands around here and I have a few of each from my childhood.
