You're right. On second look I see that it's a speaker table.

And it was just 5 min. from my house.

I found the listing just last week. The gentleman was fixing up his late father's (a ham, of course) house for sale and had moved his entire life-long electronics collection to a single outbuilding. When I visited him yesterday all the prime items were gone, but he'd cut his original prices in half so I spent a couple of hours picking through the stuff.

This is what I came home with:



Some of the stuff is in good condition, some of it is hopeless, but the prices were very attractive. I asked if I could look through a box of tubes, and he gifted me the whole box.



I'm doing an inventory right now--there are 123 tubes, about half are NOS in boxes--just two ST's--a handful of subminiatures--and a most unusual-looking "Kellogg A-C Tube Type 401" still in the box. They come in so many different flavors that I can't figure out which ones to keep.

Nice finds.

Please don't throw out any tubes of types you don't want/use. They will surely be useful to someone else in the future if you pass them along.
