Western Electric, WE - 216 - A Tube, Tennis Ball, 216 - A With Socket For DISPLAY ONLY
Item History & Price
This is for a OriginalWestern ElectricWE 216-A Vaccuum TubeAND Matching Socket
This is for one, Western Electric WE-216-A tube, with the "tennis ball" glass envelope. Metal base, original metal finish, firm base, good, full glass tip at the top of the bulb, no chips. All internal structure is solid, without rattle or cracks. The tube has filament continuity ( 2.7 ohms using a Fluke 77 Multimeter) but is for DISPLAY only, as I do not have a tester that will test its emission. The... socket is clean but has a crack on the side of it but does not seem to go into the base of the holder.
Sold as a display item only.

Mouse over the large picture for the zoom feature or click on the large picture to super size it and if you have any questions, I'll try to answer them.

Thank you for looking. Look at the photo's, read my feedback.. ask questions.
My fine print:
I live close to the post office and I never charge extra for handling.. I use new boxes where possible but you may receive your item in a used box ( the box, if used, will have been in good condition). I'll pack your item well but I can't control the handling by the carrier.
The description and photos are of the actual item you are buying. I do my best to honestly describe the item's condition that's up for auction. PLEASE ask any questions you may have. Check and read my feedback, study the pictures and description, and have fun.
