Default EHT rectifier valves for early TV kits

In 36 when your TV was up and running, over here we had some kits
and some HAM radio opps played with TV. I am trying to build one of those
KITS but find only the 878 HV tube for 7000v anode supply for CRT.
The 878 in a large chunk of glass. Did you have other tubes for a line
HV supply with about 7000v out and 15000 peak inverse?
I found tubes such as 1B3 were not meant to have 50 or 60 cycle power, they
were meant for flyback use only?

Thanks

Dennis
