Heath 5-way binding posts

[Terry Perdue]

In at least one catalog, Heath offered an assortment of their 5-way posts as
a separate product. I don't remember the quantity, but they were shipped in
a cylindrical cardboard tube. That was before they came up with the black
molded plastic insulators that they used with the posts in later kits.
