Dave S, that TV set's CRT looks to have an aspect ratio of 5:3 instead of the usual 4:3 for an NTSC set. The 5:3 ratio is close to what is used in modern digital HDTV. Maybe your picture's aspect ratio is vertically squashed, but the people and the TV dials look correct, not squashed.

Maybe an HDTV set manufacturer should make a set with "retro" styling. Styling like that used in our antique sets....
