Abstract
Abstract An adjustable shield is provided which fits over the cabinet of a CRT to help eliminate glare on the screen and also serves as a security shield. The shield is made of a series of thin solid members, which run at a right angle to the face of the tube, with a flexible member holding the strips in assembled relationship so that a standard shield can be adjusted to fit a number of different sizes and shapes of CRT enclosures.
