One application for devices like that would be vacuum tube power amplifiers, to 
delay the high voltage power supply until after the heater current has been on

I have two SPST time delay 12-volt relays packaged like vacuum tubes
with octal bases, Amperite models 12N010 (ten seconds) and 12C5 (five
seconds).

Another place they were used (but I think 60 second delay) was in the IBM 2314 disk system, where these delayed loading the heads until the drive had been spinning for 60 seconds or so.
