Philco 50-T1430

There is a piece of trim right above the screen that is held in by four screws. Remove those and you can then carefully pop that off and remove the safety glass for cleaning......
One of my earliest childhood memories is our old B & W television, and while I don't recall the brand, I do remember my mom removing that glass to clean it.  I remember being so excited because I thought I'd be able to reach in and touch the people.... I was so disappointed when my little hand hit the face of the CRT and I realized that wasn't going to happen.   Icon_crazy
