Way to go!!! Brings back lots of memories from my early years... I stood
in front of those testers many tiimes, running through the charts and
twisting the knobs. Bought lots of tubes out of them too. Mostly for
friends' TVs, but also quite a few hi-fi and radio sets.
BTW, help me remember; were the tube prices stamped on the boxes or were
they on a price list accompanying the tester?

Mission accomplished! The tester slots are full, and no further tubes
are needed. Thanks to all of you who helped me fill the tester
drawers!

Impressive! If they ever make another 'back to the future' movie maybe

Here is the original rec.antiques.radio+phono thread documenting the restoration:

Reading that should help explain some of the extra photos in the Flickr album.
