I wonder when those "A-B" packs were last available? I had a collector friend who got his first radio around '72, a Firestone farm set that used the typical big 1.5V/90V pack. He said that the local hardware store was able to get him one; but, it was an act of congress and was costly, even during the early '70's. Frankly, I'm surprised they were made that late. Several years ago, the local parts house still carried the 67.5 volt and 90 volt batteries like what was used in tube portables; but, they were high as a cat's back.
