Tube Books at Old Colony

[Don Buska]

FYI,

I just got a copy of the latest Old Colony Sound Lab catalog in the mail last
night.  It contains alot of books that might be of interest to BA users.  One
book I'm seriously considering is titled the "Operating Features of the
Audion".  This is a small 32 page reprint of Edwin Armstrongs 1917 paper from
the Journal of the New York Academy of Sciences.  Looks like great historical
reading and for seven bucks not a bad price.  Old Colony also has many of the
RCA tube books in reprint and they also have a 5 volume set titled "A
Comprehensive Radio Value Guide".

Probably the most interesting was the page with foreign tube books.  How about
a 636 page book from Japan which has characteristic and specs for all major
vacuum tubes.  That one is a little steep at $110, but it does say that it is
75% english, so I'm assuming this book may contain reprints of original
manufacturers data.  There are other books in Japanese, German, Swedish and
Italian.

If you want a copy of their catalog call them at (603)924-6371 or email to
custserv at audioxpress.com.  I am not affilated with Old Colony and I'm just
passing this along for those who might be in need of "just one more vacumm tube
book"!
