A color cathode ray tube includes a generally rectangular shadow mask having a curved apertured portion having a multiplicity of electron-transmissive apertures, a curved imperforate portion surrounding and integral with the apertured portion and a skirt portion bent back from a periphery of the curved imperforate portion, and a generally rectangular support frame for suspending the shadow mask by spot welding the skirt portion thereto, within a panel portion of the color cathode ray tube. The skirt portion is provided with plural embossments extending in a direction of a height of the skirt portion, and the embossments are distributed over each of central portions extending a distance PHL and a distance PVL in long and short sides of the skirt portion, respectively, PHL and PVL satisfying following inequalities: 0.5 HL<=PHL<=0.85 HL, 0.5 VL<=PVL<=0.85 VL, and HL and VL being longitudinal lengths of said long and short sides of said skirt portion, respectively, wherein a depth of the embossments decreases or increases with increasing distance from centerlines of the long and short sides.
