Hivac - under construction
The High Vacuum Valve Company began production in
1932??. They specialised in miniature valves for hearing aids
and portable radios, although they did also make full sized valves
of very high quality - e.g. this
PX230. Their boxes
were particularly attractive.

Here are thumbnails which link directly to the adverts,
which are shown in approximately chronological order, and contain some
data. They are all from the T&R Bulletin between 1933 and 1937.
The Transmitting and Receiving Bulletin was the official journal of
the Radio Society of Great Britain before the Second World War.
