I guess that's possible. I've never seen a CRT that big, iirc in 1994 a 27" would have been the most common size, 31"-32" would have been a pricey bigger screen and 35"-36" were just coming out.

This would have been a super high end, special order only set that was probably only available from the highest end electronic stores in super rich areas.
