I had the honor of seeing this historic event in person. I just happened to be there today to purchase some sets, and stayed to see if the prototype CRT would light. I figured I was going to miss the power up of the CRT so I did not bring my camera, but got some shots on the cell phone. If I can figure out how to get them off of the phone I'll post them, and email them to miniman82 as promised. I wish I had the presence of mind to bring my degaussing coil.
I even got some pictures of the set with the green beter converged than on the first moments of it displaying video.
This is definitly the most historic TV related event I've ever attended, and perhaps the most historic event I'll ever attend!!!
What an amazing experience to be among the few to see perhaps the only working original prototype shadowmask color tube display picture for the first time in several decades!
I'm still amazed that I got to see that in person!
