              When the standard GOST-5461-50 was introduced in this country, the system 
              of marking of radio valves was put in order. The principles of classification 
              mostly remained the same. The marking of new types of valves ("finger-shape" etc.) were already envisaged 
              in the above-mentioned standard.

              The valves produced abroad. Photo shows valves: 6F6 by 
              the "Kentucky Radiotrones", EM34 by the "Philips" 
              (a tuning indicator with two diametricaly set sectors), 5U4G by 
              the "Sylvania Thorn Colour Television Laboratories Ltd.", 
              6X5 by the "Tung-Sol Electric Inc.", 6K7 by the "Kentucky 
              Radiotrones", RGN1064 by the "Telefunken".

              In 
              mid 1950's the construction of the octal valves was modernized. 
              With no more fastening of the holders of electrodes on the so-called 
              "crest-pod" (left) a conciderable decrease of the valves 
              sizes was made possible (right). On the photo: two different versions 
              of the 5691 tube made by the RCA.
