I believe Arcturus was using the S type envelopes for a good bit longer than other companies. They made quite a few blue glass type 56 tubes with the S envelope and a black hot stamped base. I have a number of these and even one with a blue hot stamped base. The clear glass ST Wunderlich tubes are less common than the blue glass S types. I have seen two of the ST types. I have never seen a blue glass ST type 56 tube in spite of many blue ST type 57 and 58 tubes used in the same radios.…

I have never seen a blue glass ST type 56 tube in spite of many blue ST type 57 and 58 tubes used in the same radios. Therefore it is likely that the blue S type 56 tubes were manufactured until approximately the time that Arcturus switched to the clear ST type 57 and 58 tubes. Interesting Norman.

Interesting Norman. I've never seen a Wunderlich that was in a shouldered envelope and even the rebranded Sylvania Type 29s were blue glass globe versions. But just because I never heard of or saw of one certainly doesn't mean they were nonexistent. To my knowledge the types 56, 57 and 58 were always shouldered, is that consistent with your understanding? Jim Clark's Collector's Guide shows that the Allwave 12 DeLuxe with AVC was introduced in December of 1932 which would be extraordinarily…

At the time the EH Scott Radio Laboratories offered the Allwave Deluxe, I believe they were equipping their chassis with Arcturus tubes and it is very likely that Arcturus was still making the type 45, 56, and 80 tubes in the S type envelopes. Therefore, I do not believe it is clear that all tubes in the Allwave Deluxe but the Wunderlich would have been in the shouldered type ST envelopes. Also, Arcturus did make the Wunderlich in a clear glass ST envelope with ink stamped base for replacement purposes</div>
