Those CRT's were made by CBS-Hytron. The earlier 19" rounds that Motorola, CBS and Raytheon used, were made by them, as well.
I guess, you could consider the 22" first, but it was a flop, where the early 60's Toshiba, must have been considered a success.
I'm one of the sorriest people on earth, that I dumped the Toshiba-built Sears set, years ago. I haven't seen one before, or since.
