    Yes, but this wasn’t in the US.

    My grandmother’s building had a party line and you would have to contact the switchboard to connect you.

    I donated 15 Cabinet Tube TVs and 2 LCD flat panel TVs last year when my 100yo grandfather passed.

    We also donated a spare main CRT tube original new in the box.
    We also sold off 3 boxes of spare tubes in various sizes.

    There were 3 that were larger than my hand.

    My brother in law once had a Mercury cougar, can't remember the year. I swear it had a box of car electronics in his trunk with vacuum tubes.

    Remember when Politicians spent most of their time taking bribes and chasing Hookers instead of screwing things up and raising your taxes!?
