Couldn't they have fixed the grille cloth while they were at it??
Couldn't they at least turn down the color?

I've been there, and seen this, some years ago, but I can't recall if the center set also had new guts installed.

I have a video about Herbert Hoover from his historical home, and they make a point of the fact that he was into the latest technology. They show off the color roundie he had in his office - but, it likewise has new guts installed, and pretty poorly too, so you can see a big gap between the bezel and the new picture tube.
