Description

Please be sure to review all my other auctions after you have looked at this one!  I will be listing a broad and diverse range of vintage communications and technology items, related books, periodicals and ephemera...  Something for everyone!
This is a great example of an original Western Electric 113-A  Vacuum Tube Socket!  It is for use with the Western Electric 212 A-E series of 250 watt audio amplifier vacuum tubes!  These are very hard to find!
The housing was made as a solid brass casting and painted black.  The ends are fitted with bakelite panels that hold the connection points for the contact pins from the tube.
It is in great condition with only the modest chips in the paint that you would expect for such an old item.  The connection hardware is complete, original and without damage.  Printing on the WE label is clear and bright...
I have tried to take good pictures to indicate the physical condition! Ask if you have any questions...
If you collect Western Electric vacuum tubes and need the socket for your WE 212's, this might be for you!  Opportunities to purchase such an item are quite rare!
Shipping weight will be about 6 pounds.
I will pack all items properly and with great care.  I have been shipping these kind of vintage items worldwide since the late 1980's.  Buyers are responsible for shipping, insurance and material costs and any applicable duties.  I usually can ship within one business day after receipt of confirmed payment.
