Damn.That looks a lot like the chassis in my uncles tv that probably hit the dump after the salvation army got it.His was early American style with much lighter wood.Probably oak.That is if that one had solid state IF.His may have been a Z chassis.His also had the first IC I ever seen in a tube set.The chroma demodulater was a metal cased IC that was soldered to a phenolic base that plugged into a 9 pin tube socket.The halo is caused by the glue behind the safety glass same as the RCAs.My uncles had been replaced by a Channel Master tube in 1985.So he no longer had the halo but that tube did have a purity problem in the lower right hand corner.Always did.He used that set everday til 2000.I kept it going in it's final years.
