I seem to recall hearing that GE had to recall some sets in the late 60s due to defective tubes that emitted too much radiation. After that they seemed to really be on their toes.
I don't ever recall hearing of an epidemic of cancer among tv repairman, which I will take as a good sign!
I have the service manual for an Admiral color tv with a 21AXP22. It says not to operate the set without the safety glass as there will be xrays emitted from the center of the screen. The safety glass was enough to stop them.
