If you are reading this, I guarantee that you already know much more about these vintage collectible items than I do. Much information, even specifications, is available on line. There is a great website to check out at http://www.philbrickarchive.org/, giving some of the history, including the very first commercial op amp, the K2-W.
And here's the site for the whole Application Manual, referring to the different models: http://www.philbrickarchive.org/1956_applications_manual_for_philbrick_octal_plugin_computing_applifiers_ocr.pdf (Yes, the site does say "applifiers.")
I found these items, some with tubes, and some without, and a "collection" of loose tubes. My dad put numbers on the tubes, for which I have no knowledge. I will tell you the numbers taped on the tubes for the various models, if that is important to you. I am guessing that the loose tubes may have come out of some of the items, and if you can tell by the numbers of the tube in the item, which of my spare tubes may have come out of the unit, let me know, and I'll include that one in your order. (I hope I'm not getting too complicated.)

Send me an email if you are interested, but this listing is too confusing. I'll do my best to clarify it!! Also email me ahead of your purchase, if you want me to include one of these tubes.
I hope one or more of these op amps would be great in your vintage electronics or early computer collection!! Notice that any that you purchase beyond the first one ships free of additional shipping charges!
Thanks for looking here!!
