How does the front plastic screen cover come off ?
I want to polish it.
In the early Seventies, tinted plastic sun shades were a popular feature on many portable TVs. Most were just a press fit over the screen with no clips or other retaining mechanisms. Check around the cover. There may be an indentation or other finger hole to remove the cover. Don't force anything and don't use any kind of pry tool to remove it. It should come off with relative ease. I never liked those covers. They dim the picture and are often easily scratched. I had a little 9" Panasonic that had one. I never used the cover. I polished it up real good and put it away. I only put it back on when I sold the set.

I just noticed in your ninth picture from the top there is a really good view of the finger hole for removing the sun shade. It is in the lower right corner of the screen on your set.
