Every early color set that I've seen, that used a 21AX CRT, that CRT had a EIA 274 on it. That was a GE, Hoffman, Motorola and an Admiral. It had the OEM brand name on it, with a 274 EIA.
IIRC, Sylvania was the main supplier to Sears for their replacement tubes. The OEM tubes were made by several different Mfg's.
