Guilty as charged!

I just couldn't believe the guy still had them after 2 weeks on the web, no one else had called him so I made the trip immediately. They were posted pretty badly though, who writes 'original' Zenith TV? I know I've never searched for those terms, but maybe I'll have to add them to my list.

Here it is, in situ in my TV room right next to the 7 and 9. The AXP filaments light up, but the neck glows purple with HV applied (I put the CTC-9 chassis on it to test). That means air, so the tube leaks. I'll either stick a glass tube in it, or wait for eternity to find a good jug. Shame though, it was rebuilt 2 times already- I can see the neck welds.
