Some promising looking 'golden oldies' there Dennis. If you have any of the following I'd be interested for my AC77. (No need to test them, other than a filament check):
PEN A4
FC4
VP4B
2D4A
IW3
Not on the scrounge - happy to pay a sensible fee for any plus P&P of course.
The problem with old valves is that we never know whether they were pulled because they were past their best, pulled from duff sets but still with life in the valves, or NOS ones that haven't especially been looked after - just chucked in a box. Proof of the pudding is in the hearing (or not, as the case may be!). It's a reasonable bet that if there are several identical ones that are boxed, they'll be 'new in box'.
