My father-in-law used to build tvs in the 50’s as a hobby. He saved a box of vacuum tubes that my mother-in-law is trying to get him to throw out. He is determined to hold on to them. Maybe I can get him to part with one! LOL!

About 4 years ago an old friend of mine passed away. I helped his family clear out his house of 50+ years. He had been involved in designing and building scientific equipment.

I kept some of his old stuff for posterity. If I knew how much some of those old tubes were in demand (although I imagine you are joking) I would have kept the four large boxes of them that we took to the dump. He was also a Ham radio buff - one of his son’s took an old one he had as a memento.

While I had some old four pin tubes, the C124 does not ring any bells.

I am sure there are dealers of old radio parts...Did you try just a simple internet search?
Type in “antique radio parts”
You will be amazed at the links.
