Hard to say exactly why the speaker grill was chewed up. My best guess is rodents. As there was rodent poop in the wooden cabinet of the tv where mice took residence at some point in the past.

I got this tv from someone who had worked at an e waste center, they did not have the time or interest. So while this tv is in rough shape, at least I managed to save it from the landfill.

I also noticed the HV area was just coated with tobacco tar and nicotine glaze. I know most people smoke back in the 1960s so I was not surprised to see evidence of the prior owner being a smoker but was in awe at how much gunk built up. I guess smoking probably caused a short in the HV area at some point.

So you can call this Zenith a smoker's choice set!
