Has various NOS types/brands and the history of the 6V6GT & 6L6. VTV also has a nice article on history of the 6L6-type tubes. Co-written by Eric Barbour & the late Charlie Kittleson.

Well, dang it anyhow. I have all of the set (like 20 issues). Excellent stuff. Maybe, scan the 6V6GT and 6L6 issues one day. You can get some issues on EBay:
