Lookie here what I scored today and is on its way to me - a 1930 Supreme Model 19 tube tester!
What makes this one so cool is how early it is in the evolution of tube testing. Instead of selector switches and roll charts, the tube types are printed right on the faceplate next to their sockets.
Mine still has the original wood case, leather handle, GE/Supreme meter, sockets and panel markings intact.
Now the fun part begins: receiving it and then carefully bringing it back to life!
