Got this from Charlie at Vacuum Tube Valley around 1999. Can't find any like it on the internet, wondered how many he made.
Ah, the good old days when people weren't afraid of "chemicals"; they were a feature, not a bug. Nowadays they'd be advertising how "chemical free" and "sustainable" their tubes are.
I had a Gray OTS shirt, and a Black OTS shirt.
I gave one away.
Rare?
Count them up, shirt owners.
As if all shirt owners read this Forum, and read this thread, we will never know how many are still out there (And do wives throw away hubby's shirts?).

I've noted things disappear into the Bermuda triangle.. like the DIY jeans that have more holes than jeans, my guitar practice amp and pedals. I'm currently looking for an old interconnect cable I had.. Although I do have a terrible habit of wearing good t-shirts, jeans and shorts etc whilst DIYing so I've been told outright 😀
Hmm...
My stuff usually disappears after I've come up with a much more logical and tidy way to store it.
I collected quite a few small power supplies for testing various subunits of builds like heaters, filaments, CCSs, etc.; they were scattered around my workshop willy-nilly but I could always find them when I needed them. I was looking for them a few months ago during a build and couldn't find any of them; after cross-examining the wife she swore she had no idea where they were and that she "never goes in that room" with a sound of utter disgust (hehe). Well it turns out that I had "organized" them all into a box on the shelf next to my bench along with some wound-up cables so I would know where it all was, but I forgot I did that. I stumbled upon them a week after my project was finished...
RoHS compliant tubes with zero emissions. It doesn’t mean they actually have to *work*.
I've taken to labeling boxes with permanent markers. It looks ugly, but at least I know what's in the boxes...
