And the jug is obviously baaaaaked, it's a 21cyp22a, and a rebuild at that. If anyone here wants to sell me a compatible replacement, I'm all ears
Honestly the CRT looks good in the pictures. Purity adjustment is miles off which is something that must be addressed before worrying about color circuits (you have to have a really good B&W picture including purity before you can have a decent color picture).
My rule is if it's acceptably bright without a brightener run it, and if it needs a brightener use it up on that brightener and look for a better tube as it slowly dies.

All the 21" roundy color tubes are interchangeable with grayscale adjustments (which have to be done when swapping CRTs anyway)....the only caveat being the metal cone 21AXP22 can't go into a newer set designed for a 21CYP, FBP/FJP/GUP/GVP22 because newer sets lack insulation in their mounting provisions. 19V roundy tubes (21" tubes relabeled because of changes in measurement laws) are also interchangeable.
