Interesting little find.... the 6AX4 appears to be an Amperex Bugle Boy... or at least, the little Bugle Boy icon is on the base of the tube. Did Amperex only use this graphic on their Bugle Boy tubes? Or were they used on their standard line of tubes as well? I would have never expected a 6AX4 to be available in a Bugle Boy.

I thought Amperex only used that Bugle Boy logo on tubes likely to be used in audio and hi-fi work... And I doubt anyone would go to the trouble to counterfeit that logo on that tube.

Maybe they just had an excess supply of octal sockets with that logo, and they were out of the regular ones, and they had to fill orders to ship...
