Well I got the tubes from the seller in the mail. Pictures will follow
later.
2 tubes one is unmarked the other is marked in blue with the following
VX9110
DEV LAB SAMPLE
NL
NUMBER 7
It is an end view tube approx 1 5/8 inch dia
by 4.25 inch long
No anode mesh, it has 13 segments formed of wire sitting on top of a
ceramic support plate that sits on top of a mica centering disk. The innes
segmemts are in a star pattern with the vertical ray going from top to
bottom, all other segments make up half sections. Size of the display is
1.125 tall x .75 wide in inches. There are a couple of decimal points?
There are 16 pins. The pins face the front of the tubes. The bakelite
bases are brown and have a finger pull on the back. It looks like the
tubes were made to plug into a panel from the back side of the panel. The
glass press is flat and has 16 wires coming through it. (lookes like the
old style tube press before the wafer seal came into use.) the seal
tubulation comes out through the center of the glass press. There are 2
rectangular getters. Both tubes still contain Neon as they light with my
hand held sparker/tesla coil tester. Have not had time to wire up to a
power supply with the appropriate limiting resistance.
