I have two G10/241E and both are dead unfortunately.... but physically
intact.

Primarily a tube collector item I'd suggest. They're fiddly to drive
and the display is much less visually striking than other dekatron
types, so there's not a lot one can do with them in the direction of a
clock or similar. And then there's the question of condition - many
G10/241E don't work now, even if they're apparently NIB (there's a
'death in storage' problem that afflicts many high speed dekatron
types including this one). And the metal base shell is prone to
cracking and falling off the tube which is cosmetically unattractive.
So a scraggy tube without proof of function is pretty worthless IMHO.
At the other end, a tested mint tube in the original box is probably a
few tens of dollars, depending on how interested the small pool of
likely buyers is at that moment. If you've got one of these you might
want to sell, you're welcome to PM me some pictures and I'll try to
give some more specific input - I've done quite a bit of historical
research on these tubes. They're actually a really early solution to
the counting tube problem, but one which largely lost out in
commercial use to the more elegant and flexible Ericsson designs.
While we're on the subject of STC counting tubes, does anyone have a
working G10/240E (note different number) that they'd be interested to
sell? PM me if so!
Cheers,
Jon.
