I've never seen a speaker grille turn that dark!
Just wondering, since Eric's picture reminded me, has anyone made reproduction CRT (foam?) rubber masks for these sets? I've never seen one in any condition. other than complete melt. It apparently snapped on to the plastic protrusions behind the CRT mask.

The melted material is only a thin rubber pad between the strap and the CRT. The mask is fine. Usually the rubber CRT pads on these do not melt like that.
