These lines appear on Sony Trinitrons.  The manual which came with my
VRT19 monitor says:

 "The Sony TRINITRON(R) color CRT used on this product provides improved
  brightness and color purity over conventional CRT's. You may notice two
  very faint horizontal lines across the screen when displaying full screen
  light colors. These are internal CRT mechanical supports. They are normal
  and not screen defects."
