Reminds me of a little early 50's Fergy TV I bought at the NVCF a couple of years ago. Although the back cover was present, the metal cone covering the sharp end of the CRT was missing and had been replaced with a tub from a microwaveable pudding. Thin and soft, it afforded very little in the way of protection!
