Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: The top and plates look like the Visseaux enraved base 2A3's I use, ...

Apparently Visseaux did manufacture some tubes (see link), but who knows if they made the ones I have.

I do not, however, believe that these were made at the NJ Sylvania plant as there is lots of internal copper and the micas are completely different.

It is noted in the link that Visseaux and Sylvania established a technical relationship in the late 1940s, so my guess is that they are based on a Sylvania design but in fact made in France (but not sure if that is a good thing).
