I've always been under the impression that a lot of 70's vintage beam
power tubes marked "made in England" or "made in Holland" were actually
made in Eastern Europe or Russia and marked with funny countries of
origin just so they could be imported.

These seem to show up particularly in the "United" brand boxes but I
also see these funny markings associated with no-name companies like
"Standard Brands" etc. too.

Have I really been off-base with my presumptions? I'm sure that my
presumption is based entirely on something I heard at a hamfest in the
early 80's, and a lot of the other stuff I heard there was complete
hogwash too :-).
