I have seen glowing screen grids in tubes dear boy.

Especially in EL34 when the screen wires have drooped a bit after 
excessive heating traumas.

But sometimes in badly made tubes.

Open your eyes, use a magnifying glass.

And the OP said the glow went away when the Ia was cut off.
And that happens. No Ia, and no Ig2.
