If one puts an XXL tube next to an 813 the whole picture looks kinda silly.

As for the advertised it would appear that the set is a product of systemic and methodical vandalism rather than simple exposure. If such wanton destruction hasn't extended to the rear of the set and the vitals of the chassis then such as transformers, IF cans and other specialty parts could be salvaged to somebody's gain. And any tubes that haven't whitened at the getters may prove useful somewhere....

If any of the intact cabinet parts--such as the curved, ribbed pieces at the corners on the beltline--are needed by somebody doing a resto of a better-preserved example of this model then it might be worth the price right there.
