Here are two Philco engraved base globe 45 tubes for your consideration. I believe these were made for Philco by Sylvania, and if that's the case, the date codes on the bases (L0 and C1) indicate December 1930 and March 1931
Tube 1: (with the Philco sticker, date code L0):
TV-7D/U: reads 84 (47 is minimum)Hickok RD-1575: reads 2000 (1100 is minimum), life test (filament voltage reduced 10%) reads 1700
Tube 2: (no sticker, date dode C1):
TV-7D/U: reads 76 (47 is mini...mum)Hickok RD-1575: reads 1800 (1100 is minimum), life test (filament voltage reduced 10%) reads 1650
There are no shorts or any indication of gas in either tube. The getter flashes are excellent, no rattles or loose material inside, and the bases are tight.
Their construction is nearly identical. The only obvious differences are the plate stampings are different, and tube no. 1 has a hole in the center of the base (there from the factory). The license notices on the bottoms are identical. Both have cup getters.
Please note: Ebay is now collecting sales tax on behalf of a number of states, which include AL, AR, CT, DC, IA, ID, IN, KY, NE, NJ, NM, NY, OK, PA, RI, SD, VA, VT, and WA. More will be added later this year. This will apply to a shipping address in any of those states unless you or your shipping agent is tax exempt. If so, you must provide your forms to eBay to avoid being charged this tax. I'm sorry, this is now US law and it is beyond my control.
International shipping is available to selected countries that offer tracking and delivery confirmation with the USPS First Class International package service. Any import duties or taxes are the responsibility of the buyer. I do not use the eBay global shipping program.
Thank you for looking!
