The screen is one part and the cone and neck at the back is the other part.
Many later tubes had the two parts joined together by some kind of adhesive especially on VGA computer monitors.
I used to repair computer screens and the BER ones often broke up as they were thrown into the skip so that is how I know what tubes look like inside.
They were like vertical blinds in trinatron tubes.
