As a general rule on paper cap era sets, I prefer to go after the horizontal stage first (once the PS is operating) to restore it's operation to know the state of the rest of it, or to keep it from failing (and thus demanding attention).

My recommendation while waiting for a schematic, if the set has a tube chart, is to find the horiz osc, osc control, output, and damper tubes, and go after the caps connected to those tubes and the ones connected to the parts connected to them.
I was thinking that exact thing too...

Because I double and triple checked the values before I installed them in to the set. I intentionally did this board first because it can't be serviced or accessed with out removing the CRT, so I wanted to get it done first.

At least it didn't hurt the flyback. It's still producing a solid 6kV.

There is one bee that translated to having a 1,600V rating, which I don't have any with a voltage rating over 630, so I left it, and it has an electrolytic in the horizontal section of 475. Another voltage rating I own none of.
