My guess would be it ended around 1960. I was born late 1954, and transistor radios were available and affordable by the time I was about 6. Could been a few years earlier. I had 1955 Chevy that had tubes in the radio head, and a tube amp by the glove box. My 1964 Skylark had a solid state radio.
I'm sure there is a history of tubes online somewhere.
