Well, I went & had a quick looksee Saturday afternoon...
Nice older couple, wife said it belonged to her parents.
Best guess, I would have to say that the CRT is a 16GP4, it's just too short
(less thn 18") to be anything else. Schematic inside TV calls for a 16RP4, or equivalent. CRT has the plastic cone around it, but I can make out "Kaye Halbert" in big red letters on the cone. CRT is bad, as there is a crack at the 9 o'clock position. Very odd-sized bezel, as the seller is right, it only exposes 13.5" of the screen. I can just barely make out the flyback under the chassis, and it looks OK, but can't be sure. No 1B3, looks like a voltage doubler under there, as there are 2 small rectifier tubes that look like the ones the CTC series use for focus. The cabinet has a gouge in it on the left side, and can be seen in seller's photo, and the finish is flaking on both sides, down low. Sorry, but I forgot to get model numbers...

If anyone is interested in this set, go ahead & bid. You'll have to beat $5.01 though... Or, if you are a cheap-ass (like me) you can give me a buck for it if I win!
