Interesting that it has an Electromagnetic Speaker instead of a PM, 53 seems awfully late for that.

I have a 53 but the speaker is located in the bottom so I don't think I've ever looked at it all that closely, don't know what it is.

Those Cotton Straps holding the Yoke get very brittle, I broke one of mine when I changed the CRT just by bending it sideways, snapped off like it was made of Pasta.
