I’m sorry. You are absolutely right, but it would be nice if you could elaborate instead of just saying they are not.
Other than being from different manufactures and having different part numbers and many other things, like glass, exact size, etc, they are 100% different. If you relax a little, my point was that all three are Spiral’s. My comment was regarding the appearance of a spiral and not the exact similarities and differences.

It looked to me similar to the other what I call floating VFD on mica type tubes like a handful of others.
