I'm looking at tubeworld's 6550 page and the pictures at the bottom of the page look dark grey. Not black.
What's the deal?
What color is this one?

I put three of mine out for comparison and the one on the end is a gray plate.The early black plates had the Sq DD side and top getter and the later had the round getter on top and both sides. The one your looking ar is no doubt a gray plate but date code will tell you more because they didn't make black plate 6550s after 1961.

IME, the "blackplate" original Tungsol 6550 weren't as dark as say, the RCA 6L6GC, of the same era. The one in photo does look like a gray plate. Maybe, camera angle or lighting issues?
