One scope I'd love to have is a Tek 519. It was 1 GHz with a distributed-deflection CRT and no vertical amp. I think it managed something like 1v/div, where "div" was 1 mm or some such.
The sweep generator uses a 4CX250. This thing is so big and heavy it kicks sand in the faces of wimpy things like 547s.
I do have a CRT, which I dug out of one, in the rain, in the parking lot of Los Alamos Sales.

I remember that.
You probably passed me, in the tunnels.
The Soviet admission may be what prompted the EG&G Woburn group to hire the electron LINAC guy so they could make an even faster 'scope.

This is a scan-conversion scope
that my friend Bernard still makes. He sort of copied my company/products/logo, except that he has three seagulls and I have a moon.
Tek used to sell this scope under their name, too. I think it was developed by In-Snec for the French atom bomb program.
Modern digital scopes are up to 32 GHz single-shot. People are doing stuff like digitizing x-band radar pulses right at the antanna.
