My favorite power tube.
The mighty Cetron 6336B twin triode.
35 watts per section and pulls 5 amps of heater current.

6336A twin triode @ 30 w per section used in an
output transformerless power amp.

Stopped by one of the American Science and Surplus stores in the Chicago area on the way back home from Chattanooga, and it never occurred to me until now you guys might get a kick out of it:

I just heard that All Electronics is going out of business .. its the closet thing to Science Center here in LA. I still have items I bought at the SC in Chicsgo in the early 90s.

Fortunately Apex surplus is still going and has cleaned up although they are more geared towards prop rentals these days. I still bought as much as I vould last time I was there... I had to haggle with them for the privilege to buy a shipping cannister emblazoned with DO NOT DESTROY that I'm currently using as a trash can
