"I suppose if they had named these tubes 'Edsel' they wouldn't have sold as well."
According to Gary, these Corvette tubes were a rebrand for the Marshall-Wells department store chain. Gary claims to have 'a pile' of these tubes, and they are of various origins; USA, Japan, and England to name a few. Most likely ear-marked to supplement any Television or Radio sold through the store, we can again safely assume finding rebranded Blackplate 6L6's ain't gonna happen.
