Well, the browning on the 16AP4 looks real, all right. This TV makes only about 9KV, so presumbly X-rays would be less of a factor, but who knows.
Re colors in screen shots, I've found it practically impossible to take a photo that truly represents the picture. Different cameras make all kinds of color corrections (or "mistakes"), the most common being that a B/W screen will look too blue.
I haven't noticed this kind of effect before. Perhaps it isn't common at all.
When my old TVs are working right, the screens look black and white to my eyes, not brownish or bluish. If you look at the screen shots of Wallace & Gromit near the end of the article that I referenced, that is what this CRT looks like now. Those shots were taken in a dimly lit room, with the camera zoomed in so that it didn't "see" the room background and make color corrections for that.
