Incredibly scarce, from NOS never used Western Electric tube equipment. Pair engraved 229A 1.5uf oil capacitors / condensers. These are early style Western Electric capacitors with sealed Hook ends and engraved (stamped into metal) letters on side. Original SILVER PAINT. Tested, no leaks and perfect function. This type is the highest quality standard Western Electric built; from same era as WE 86A & WE91 legendary theater amps! These incredibly reliable sealed oil types have become extremely popular with those interested in building the finest sounding tube amplifiers -- essential for the very best detailed sound.  Removed from NIB (never used) Western Electric tube Bell System equipment. They do test perfectly, no leakage at full voltage and register full capacity. thoroughly tested by our technician on Sencore capacitor analyzer at full operating voltage, perfect function — see tags, no leaks, low ESR. No DOA, they are working perfect (see my feedback, all happy customers for WE audio).. In MINT wonderful cosmetic condition and include original Western electrical hardware. You don't these very much anymore -- most amp builders have hoarded them for projects. And this is probably the nicest and most thoroughly tested set online right now; as they are a really nice, rare match from 1942!

Buy now to avoid a bidders war, you will be very happy with them! Will combine ship OVERSEAS OK.
