In a color cathode ray tube, by optimizing an outer radios of curvature, an inner radius of curvature on a corner portion, a thickness of a long side, a thickness of a short side, a thickness of the corner portion, the total length of the panel, the total length of the funnel body and the total length of a yoke portion of the funnel determining a section shape of the yoke portion of the funnel, a stress concentrated on the yoke portion can be lowered. In addition, according to the increase of an inner radius of curvature of the corner portion of the yoke portion, a crash phenomenon of an electron beam is decreased, and an impact resistance and productivity improvement in fabrication process can be secured by lowering a high stress occurrence on the funnel in vacuum.
