I have too many tubes to photograph in one pic. I have a tall Sears toolbox with all my small envelopes and many large boxes with all my big bottles. Guess I've done some collecting. I probably have only 5 12Ax7 types total. Who needs those buggers?

Thanks!

The first one was shot a few years ago with an Olympus E3 and the last two were recently shot with a Fujifilm Finepix S200 EXR with a B+W polarizer in FSB (film simulation bracket) mode.

Not the best pic, but it works, thanks.

Hi,Ericus You and me like these buggers because we are both valve lovers,don't understand why people see valves as buggers but still collect them?

The entire Manley family is pretty interesting.
David married a young rock and roller biker girlie, EveAnna, they founded VTL, they then opened Manley and then David split.
EveAnna runs Manley and has since remarried and Luke (David's son from a previous marriage) runs VTL.
Here's some non-soap opera reading material on the guy who got the ball rolling:
