Looking back at a couple of these photos, now I am wondering whether this CRT was rebuilt.
The sticker on the CRT bell is hand-lettered 12JP4, which made me think "rebuild." But the stamped name looks like it could be Hytron. Would a rebuilding shop use a factory sticker? Or something more like "Joe's Rebuilt Picture Tubes?"
The picture of the gun inside the neck doesn't show any welds or seams in the glass. When you rebuild a tube, wouldn't you leave some kind of visible seam in that area?
It's a very strong tube either way. Just curious.
