Makes one wonder if it was a rebuild, or if the 15GP22 was still being manufactured new?

I figure RCA had built four or five thousand CT-100s, then there were the other 15 inchers (at least 500 Westinghouse sets, 100-200 GEs, etc) and finally all the studio monitors. There would have been some demand for 15GP22s into at least the 1960s. Probably not that great of one, but a real demand nonetheless.
