I was very happy to get the original box and paperwork. I didn't look like it had ever been used.

I thought that they would just be more useless stuff taking up space, but now I wonder if some museum might be interested in them. They are still there as far as I know. The one in your picture looks like the neck is much smaller than the others.

I've seen a number of 8YP4s with a grid on them. Mine uses a tight fitting plastic film with the GE logo in one corner.
Yes, the neck is the smaller type used on newer, more rounded B&W CRTs.
