The 12DQ6 Horizontal Output tube was original also, a good indication it might be a low hour set, however the capwasloose and pulled off when I tried to remove it so I will be replacing it.

I dug through my tube stash and came up with an Arcturus brand 12DQ6, I've heard of Arcturus in relation to vintage radios but not so much TV tubes, they seem to have sunk pretty low by this time since the tube is the most generic looking rebranded tube I've seen, cheaper even than National Union.
Just the number and brand name rubber stamped on the glass, and not very well either.
