Need help with a monitor. I think this is vertical collapse but was just getting a second opinion.

Thanks for any help

It depends, which way is the monitor turned? (Too dark for me to tell.)

Is this a horizontal or vertical game/monitor/frame?
 
looks more like a yoke issue or a combination of things.
 
fairly certain that's a blown yoke. vertical collapse would be a complete loss of vertical deflection, or one skinny line going across the widest part of the screen.
 
Yeah I agree, looks yoke-related. In a true vertical collapse, the beam is not scanning from top to bottom at all and so you cannot see anything recognizable, all the information is drawn on the same line. The fact you can make out some of the image tells me that the chassis is drawing the image from top to bottom like it's supposed to, and the distortion you see is happening somewhere later down the line.
 
Thank you for the direction to start looking

It is horizontal.

Thanks for the help I will start probing around the yoke to see if anything busted.
