This 1957 Philco is more or less for free; it is because the owner broke the neck of the CRT while loading it into his car

. I got two questions: the phosphor didn't "fell" yet, but it will eventualy fall, right? Second question, I will have to make a very long journey to bring this TV to my house, in a very bad road, the phosphor might fall during the trip? I know, so much effort to save a TV with a busted CRT may sound silly, but, like I said in another thread I posted here many months ago, 1950's TV sets are very rare here.
