Nice, but it would be so much nicer with a "double-D" shaped screen. I wonder if this is a round CRT with a rectangular border, or an actual rectangular CRT. It looks old enough to be the former.

The RA-105 uses a 15" round glass CRT, 15AP4. 15DP4 is the only direct sub and both types are very scarce.

Hey, at least a buyer will have a better chance at having a good CRT than if the set had a metal/glass 19AP4, which was pretty common for Dumont, and other brands, in those days.
