Interesting, Thanks for posting! I have never seen one, and my tube manuals (early-mid 60s) don't list any 25 inch P-4 (B/W) jugs. However, in a Sams pocket sized "Tube Substitution Handbook" 1972 printing, I found listings of 25DP4, 25HP4, 25JP4, 25KJP4, 25LP4, and 25TP4. With color TV rapidly gaining popularity in this time frame, I suspect that sales for these large screen B/W sets were rather poor.
