Sylvania 6SN7GT 2-Hole BAD BOY Tubes "TRUE NOS from 1949" Platinum Matched

Description: Sylvania 6SN7GT 2-Hole "BAD BOY" Tubes (pair)"TRUE NOS from 1949 made in Emporium, PA"Tube #1: Vintage 1949 JUN (F9M) Tube #2: Vintage 1949 JUN (F9M) 2-Hole "BAD BOY" - Bottom "Foil" Getter - Tall BottleTriple Platinum Matched on AT1000 - TESTS NOSThese 2 boxes (see pics) of tubes are without a doubt the most incredible find I've ever come across in all my years collecting tubes. The tubes were manufactured in the Sylvania Emporium, PA Plant in 1949 then placed in the 100 count box to transfer them to the Williamsport, PA plant which was used as central collection point to have the screen printing put on the tube base, then get packaged, and finally shipped. Even the 100 count box has Eureka Paper Box Company of Williamsport, PA. marked on it who was the supplier to Sylvania during the 1940's and early 1950's. Somewhere along the line, and we will will never know why or where, these 2 boxes never made it to Williamsport to be screen printed and were lost for 73 years. You can immediately tell these are brand new tubes from the base, center pin and tube pins as they are pristine!!!
