I thought the same of the shadowmask CRT when I first read about it.

Rod.
I remember my uncle coming into my bedroom late one night when I was
eleven. He was the scary uncle, the one with a cravat and a cigarette
holder, the one who lived with his mum, the one who my mother said gave
her the creeps, but then my dad always said about his brother, "Innocent
until proven guilty, let's not be hasty..."
Uncle sat on my bed in the moonlight and said, "Nothing to worry about,
nothing at all, but there's been an accident. Your mum and dad have had
to go to hospital, but they'll be all right. It's just cuts and bruises."
I asked, "Where's Grandma?" She'd been babysitting.
"Oh, she's had to go home to look after Grandad. But don't worry, young
man. I'm going to stay here with you until your mum and dad come home."
I must have looked doubtful because he said, "Look, cheer up, there's
only me and you in the house so we can do just as we like. I can show
you a few of my magic tricks if you like!"
I was suddenly concerned about my parents and sat up, and cried out,
"Will Mum and Dad be all right?"
I started to sob and Uncle put his arms around me.I felt his strong
hands through my pyjamas, pulling me towards him. His breath was in my
nostrils. He dried my tears with his very clean hankie, slowly and with
infinite care. "You have a very pretty face, my boy, and when are a man
it will be a handsome face. But for now we must just remove the tears..."
Soon I was sitting up on the bed with him next to me, the silvery
moonlight playing on his moustache. He pulled me towards him and held me
tight, his left hand cupping my firm young buttock. He said, "Now, this
is a time when you must be brave. You must be a man. There are many
grown-up things you need to learn, and perhaps now is the time I should
teach you a few of them. I have something to show you." He fiddled with
his clothing, grunting with the effort, and eventually was able to
extricate something. I sat bolt upright, for it was a copy of that
month's Practical Wireless.
"Ah ha! I thought that would interest you!"
I turned my little bedside light on, and we flipped though the pages
together, Uncle never slackening his grip on my buttock. He was
obviously very worried that I might fall off the bed whist in his care.
The magazine had an article about the shadowmask CRT. "Now look here
young Bill," Uncle declaimed, "I want you to know that this is all stuff
and nonsense. Such a thing cannot possibly be made to work. There is
much nonsense in the world today, masquerading as science. Plate
tectonics, colour television, flights to the moon! It's all nonsense my
boy!"
Eventually I was calmed and Uncle tucked me up in bed, having first
suggested that I change my pyjama bottoms because the ones I had on
didn't match the tops, and my mother might have been upset if she'd come
home and found me in a state of sartorial disarray. Somehow the cord in
my pyjamas had become knotted, so Uncle got down and pulled the knot
apart with his teeth. His moustache tickled my bare young midriff. The
effort made him snort a lot, and for a moment I was quite worried about
him, because he rolled on the floor gasping for breath and groaning at
one point.
After he got up he suddenly said, very earnestly, "Look here young man,
can you keep a secret?"
"Of course I can!" I said indignantly.
"OK." He paused, as if considering something important. Them having made
a decision, he said, all in a rush, "Right, well, I know you're
interested in all this radio and electronics stuff. Well me and my mates
are going to a Radio Fair at Harrogate next week. You can come if you
like, if your mam and dad say it's OK!"
So we did, and it was great.

I'm not sure Mills and Boon would be interested in that sort of
material... possibly it would be of more interest to the police!

The full sordid details would probably come out under hypnotic regression
