back in the early seventies I paid $1.98 for two B7971's along with
controller circuit board and sockets, from Meshna Electronics, a surplus
house in New England.
I bought four boards (eight tubes and sockets). I wish that I had had
the forethought to have purchased 100 of them!
Four tubes are in service in one of my Weisling Four Letter Word's.

Interestingly, the cost of two B7971s from that ad ($8.88) would be
(only) $35.26 today*. Amazing.
Those days are definitely gone...
