After tubes, the first thing I'd check would be the cathode resister on the horizontal output tube.

If your other checks do not find the problem. . . .

I notice that the Sam's that you are using lumps the 12 inch RA-103 with the 19 inch RA-110 chassis. I see that Rider keeps them separate.

I have no idea what Du Mont changed (other than the yoke) for the bigger CRT, but there is a slight chance that the person who recapped your set used the more readily available Sam's instead of either Du Mont or Rider diagrams and accidentally created an image size problem.
