You would figure glue or some other adhesive would have been much easier and perhaps cheaper.
I didn't really clean the set at all when I got it home. All I did was take a dust cloth to the top of the cabinet and face of the CRT before taking the photos. Otherwise, it's essentially untouched.

I failed to mention, that it was the technician that did the distributor repairs, that told me that bit of information.
As I said before, I should proofread a little better.
It seems, that Emerson used computer generated labels, a lot earlier than the rest. Magnavox, as well.
