The unfortunate reality is that most very large CRTs got sent to the dump. There was a long span of time when it was extremely difficult to find homes for anything like that, and the majority of them were originally owned by businesses and educational institutions that had hard deadlines to get rid of stuff.
Working for labs and colleges over the years, I've seen so much stuff just get chucked away you wouldn't believe; easily hundreds of of thousands of dollars worth of high end computers, monitors and scientific equipment in perfect working order just because a project ended and there was no space for it anymore.
As much as it pains me to say it, there isn't going to be any out there not already in the hands of a collector.
