1975ish, right? Sanyo made earlier consoles, but nothing that large until the mid-70s. The distributor I worked for distributed Sanyos from ~1973-1978, and one thing was clear - consoles were not a big seller. Sanyo made sets during that era for Sears and Channel Master (A 91C90 series CM set is still going locally....).

Sanyo never used a US CRT supplier - your tube is probably a rebuilt one installed later. Sanyo, Clinton, and Hitachi CRTs - that's all I've ever seen...
