Willie,
   
  Sorry...I completely forgot the hearing aid tubes...the subminis like the 2E32, and some in the 2E40's as I recall. Micropower filaments, very low anode voltages.  Good amplification.
   
  Put them in your new set there...under a big plastique magnifying lense for each one; so they look very tube-ish.
   
  Western Electric had a lot of small tubes for telephone uses that worked into the VHF regions, and who could ever forget the Acorn tubes.  954 and 955.  Tho I think they used a lot of power and voltage.
   
  For the collectors, limited editions, limited to the number of good tubes of each type still extant.
   
  For FM, I seem to recall a subminiature double diode in the 5xxx series that really looks sharp...shiny anodes.  Good old-fashioned discriminator!
   
  Check Penta as a source of the older types of tubes.  And success in making your fortune.
