Another great find! That is about the most gruesome cataract I've seen in a TV. I've seen a couple round tubes that were poorly stored and got worse than that, but it takes work to get that bad!

Is that a Westinghouse-built crt? I wonder what year they started making color tubes? Something else I've wondered, and I've mentioned this before: in an old chassis-ID guide I have it shows the Magnavox and Westinghouse being identical, and Curtis-Mathes, as DieselJeep mentioned, seems to have used the same one as well. I've just been curious what the connection there was. Was it a joint effort, just a Westinghouse design, or ??? (I may be the only one in the world who really cares!)
