Received a Bunch of Spare Tubes... Any Opinions?

Hi,
I recently purchased an Eastern Electric MiniMax Preamp and Amp (separate components), and the seller was kind enough to throw in a bunch of spare tubes for free. Being relatively new to the tube rolling process, I was wondering if anyone here can comment on those tubes in regards to the EE MiniMax components. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
Ron
Note: Below is a direct email copy and paste of the tubes provided... I can provide pictures if more details are needed.

It's all rotten-sounding, worthless stuff, and I think you ought to sell all to me for about $10. - jeffreybehr 16:01:14 08/19/05 (0)
