Hmm... I don't remember the NL- types, sorry.
But I know that I saw that on RTS-11 type tubes.
And especially the CK1916 and the CK1923.

Interesting - Have you seen this with NL840-class tubes?

It's a well known problem with the 1916's.
I have about 500 NIB, and most of them show that problem.
Most need a high firing voltage (200 V and up) and some are completely dead.
The only thing I can imagine is gas leakage.
I have experienced that problem on some other American made tubes, but oddly ONLY at American made tubes (I recall National and Raytheon).
