Got this off craigslist today. It ending up being in rougher shape than I had hoped but the 10BP4 tested very strong! I'll take some better pictures in the morning.

Nice find. The fan shaped mask makes it interesting. You don't see them that often.

I need you to pass me some of your "good CRT" luck! Fantastic.

Here are some more pictures. The more I look at it the more I think I just might harvest the picture tube out of it and any other parts people might need.

What do you guys think?

I vote for restoring it because of the unique CRT mask design. However, that cabinet sure is rough and will require a lot of work so I'd understand if you part it out.

I have one of these with a somewhat better cabinet, however my CRT mask is peeling in places. That gray/white pattern was silk screened on the back side of the safety glass. Also I'm sure the wood CRT surround will pull more paint off the glass when it's disassembled. I'm thinking a silkscreen restoration job would get very spendy. I suppose a guy could have something printed to simulate the reverse painted mask and place that behind the glass.

i would restore it i've seen worse , the insides don't look bad , mine has brown and gold paint peeled off on the mask that i never got around to doing anything with partly because to do it right the glass needs to be removed and the brown will be tough befcause that part is reverse painted and need to mix to get a close match, if it wasn't unique i'd say dont bother but it is unique compared to some other common models , they do have a nice picture

Mike - I think you're correct that it's the outer brown and gold paint that's pealing from my glass. The gray and white is probably another piece attached to the CRT surround. It's been a while since I've looked at my set.

I think you should junk it, of course I'm only saying that because I want the back off it...
