I think any attempt at building a rectangular tube back in the 1950's is cool - not sure if the convergence was any good. Didn't CBS Columbia also have a 22" rectangular - could this have been the same tube used in the Westinghouse?
Tom,

Yep, the 22" Westinghouse rectangular was originally developed by Hytron/CBS Columbia.
