Natural is a lovely colour! A lot more gentle than 840! Ossie Liteguards were everywhere when I was a kid! Class tubes!

Yeah it is, much better than an 840! Really does look natural! Yeah they are some of the best, I've probably said it before but these and the Atlas Supers were the best tubes ever I think, you still see some about today!

Mfd March 1976, during a time that Sylvania's Shipley plant in Yorkshire made some of the Osram Liteguards on GEC's behalf - this looks like it could just have been such a lamp.
