With the exception of the 15GP22, I would assume they went into color TV sets of the early/mid 1960's when their CRTs went out in the early 1970's, only to be thrown out later in the 1970's when something else (fly, yoke, power transformer or tuner) in those failed.
The 15GP22s pose another question. There may have been little demand for those tubes, as so few 15" color roundies had been made, and their owners may have decided to upgrade to a larger picture when their CRTs failed.
