I'll give you 600 dollars for those tubes....;-)

Don't see that very often.....I recognize most of the tubes, but what is the large end view at the top right? Another Rodan behemoth?

Cheers,

Nick

Almost looks like a  way-oversized IN-1. Notice the pin-base extends more than halfway up the height of the tube. 

Geez, I never realized how puny my tubes are.........

I would be surprised if he even accepted $600 each.

Hi Nick,

The tube in the top right corner is a "jumbo" Burroughs B-7011. See catalog 918A for specs.

Wow. I thought I knew most of the tubes out there by now, but that is a monster!!

Thanks!

The photo of the 7011 being held in your hand is priceless; really shows the true size of this beast.

Can you post one of you holding the CD47 ?

[Greg P]

Love the anode mesh..  Looks like it was cut out of window screen material.

[Tom Van Baak]

Sure. Although compared to the top-viewing B7011, it might take two hands for the side-viewing CD47...

Yes, the anode mesh is large enough to allow small pets inside.
