There was burn on the old CRT but not stationary objects. What was burnt in was the game play field, some bits of the score, and other stationary elements. Player sprites appear to suffer no burn.

I might just let them keep the CRT as a donation and get myself a new CRT for myself if I can even source one. Since I don't use this set much anymore since even though it's "woodgrain" it's truly a BPC at heart, I can certainly find something better and worth it anyway. The TV had maybe the worst notch filter I had ever seen, and lacks a proper color killer circuit (or it never worked) so monochrome sources always had color fringing as if it was trying to decode color from something without a color burst.
