that really sucks about that fire. back when i was restoring my ct-100's i would have nightmares about the neck getting snapped on the 15gp22 or i would go to turn one on and find the phosphor plate collapsed. then i would wake up and realize thank goodness it didn't happen. my fate was much worse (to me) - forced to liquidate

. Later on I did see a 15gp in a fellow collectors garage that did have a collapsed front plate and surprising enough still was under vacuum and tested good. go figure.
