Two other items:

When you reglue your Bakelite Cabinet, use a good Epoxy Resin, the kind that takes overnight to set. Superglue will crack when flexed.

The CRT Screen seems to be made of natural rubber. Mine is that light sea green color, and had a light coat of oxidized dirt, from all those years of being cooked by the CRT. Careful cleaning with Lacquer Thinner (outdoors, of course) removed it all, leaving a flexible, "virginal" condition. I then soaked the entire rubber bezel in Vinylex, available from good auto parts stores, and placed it in a large sandwich bag, and stored it for a week. When it came out of the bag, it was per-fect.
