Test results are described on three inexpensive 5-inch photomultiplier tubes of Venetian-blind construction to be used for collection of Cherenkov light produced by electromagnetic showers in lead glass. Parameters evaluated include photoelectron collection efficiency, pulse-height resolution, amplitude and rate stability, and linearity.
