I thought you lived in our beautiful arid state of Colorado. Maybe stored in damp basement? Just kidding, but I am glad to live where everything isn't (usually) coated with rust or other corrosion. I just bought an Eico HF81 in Greeley CO and it was pristine - not a trace of rust on the screws or chassis.
I've drug home a couple of those service boxes, bought cheap. You dig through the "weeds" and usually there are some good useable US NOS tubes.

Cheers

Pete
