I've had success with bad flybacks by doing the following. Remove the high voltage winding, leaving only the primary windings. Fire up the set. If everything appears to work (other than no HV, of course), get a solid state HV tripler of the type used in later color sets. Connect it to the Hor. Output plate and the chassis to produce the HV.

Might not work on your set, but it is an easy and cheap fix if it does, until you can find a replacement flyback (or talk John Folsom into winding one for you!)
