Wrapped around old oscilloscope tubes.
I don't think old TVs ever merited its use.


Back in the days of 90 degree delta-gun shadowmask tubes, an external
magnetic shield most certainly was used around the bowl. The
degaussing coils were usually fixed to it, and it mounted using the
same four corner bolts as fixed the tube to the cabinet front. Many
were my sliced fingers, from the razor-sharp edges of these shields,
when I was an apprentice engaged in replacing these tubes ...

Ah,yes,I remember TEK 650 series monitors having a metal CRT shield.
