The re-neck seal could possibly be hiding under the yoke or focus coil.
Also, the first letter of the logo on the label does not look like an "H", but instead has a closed top... so I don't think it is "HyTron" but perhaps something designed to look similar.

Any idea of which type it could be? I think this is a diagram of the tilted offset/slashed field that you're describing. It's from the 1969 RCA tube design book.
