VERY cool! I'm also a tube collector, but don't have anything nearly that big. Biggest one I have is a ~60kW water cooled tetrode.
Is your 8974 operational, or a dud? How did you end up with it? Tubes like that are usually rebuilt, and only get tossed if they fail catastrophically. Makes them quite unusual in tube collections.
