I remember some discussions here about the 17" Japanese color sets and how they were sold by Sears. Large neck crt like a roundie? I don't believe that particular one could have been sourced from the US, or else our manufacturers would have been all over it.

That tube was a 17ENP22, made in the USA, glass componets were from Corning Glass. By today's standards, it would be considered stupid.
back then, that tube was also used in practically every Conrac (brand) Televion Station monitor.
By the time the Japs made a few of those tubes, they were obsolete.
