Hey:
Probably not very many of you have heard the name of, let alone met, Keith Coulter. He wasn't a ham but he loved old antique radios and vacuum tubes....in essence (I believe) he collected for the sake of collecting. His interests were many: o Vacuum tubes, the older the better, probably 2,500 tubes or more. o Spark Plugs.....from 1904 onward. o Bullets.....from Civil War onward. o Antique guns, from WW-II back to somewhere in the 1800's. o Bullet molds.....Individual molds for black powder guns. o Atwater Kent type radios, including two Model 10's, that go for about $1,400 each. o Test Equipment in "Suitcases"..i.e., typically wooden boxes with a handle for carrying. o 15-20 Tube Testers, I will list them as I am able to sort them out of the piles. o Probably 50-75 Miscellaneous really old meters, test sets, etc. o About 15-20 Triplett/Simpson VOM's
The list is virtually endless.........Below are some of the items that are ready to sell, and they will go the Chino Hills Swapmeet Saturday (5/21/11)......So speak up if you are interested in anything.
