Checking the serial numbers, your set is quite a bit lower than mine and so may (unlike mine) be factory wired for a color converter. If so, it would be very interesting to see if the flyback in your set is the 'color' version.

I got bored so I cleared the workbench and brought the TV inside.

The color interface connector is wired as shown in the picture. Also is shown a picture of the flyback. I don't know if this is enough to tell which flyback it is.

It's a very heavy TV. The bakelite cabinet alone weighs 28 pounds and the bakelite is 1/4" thick.
