The art of degaussing...

Are you referring to the magnets on the yoke?

No, the ones around the edge of the tube face.

Y'know, I replaced the picture tube and have had everything in this set taken apart at one time or another, and I don't remember any.

This is the CTC-36, 19HNP22 tube. Here's a shot of where I am now.....

OOPs - since Bob mentioned a 21AXP, I thought that's what you were asking about. No later sets had edge magnets, although some much later sets (especially with huge CRTs like 35 inch and above) used small trimmer magnets stuck in various places. On that rectangular tube, it could be a slight shadow mask deformation as stated, and playing with extra small magnets might help.
