What are 211's BTW?

I wouldn't worry about them failing. I guess if they were OK, 55 years ago, they should OK today. It was just an observation on my part about them.
They weren't used much in production equipment.
RE: the 211's they're using them in those pricey, Chinese built SE mono-block amplifiers, that are sold today. They were common in WWII, surplus transmitters.
