That is totally too many of those tubes for one person to own.

Keep several pairs and send the rest to me.

Just kidding

Year of manufacture? Do they have (readable) date codes?

Best regards,

White came with a standard consumer warranty GE offerd at the time.
Red was a special distributor warranty.
Green had no warranty and was sold to military, institutions, schools, etc.
