Such sets were fairly common in the early days of HD displays. They were much less expensive than the 16:9 sets available in that era. None of them had built-in digital tuners that I am aware of. They typically went into "letterbox" 16:9 mode when switched to an HD input (component video or RGB/"VGA").

Most of them accepted a 1080i input via component or RGB; some also accepted 720p. The actual resolution is/was probably about 720p (1280x720), in the 16:9 area of the CRT.
