discussion about old LEDs makes me wonder...Is anyone aware
of a mailing list for discussion of vintage electronic components?
It's not terribly off-topic here of course, but many people
here may not care.
And on that note...does anyone know if any manufacturer made
74LS244 (actually any logic family, doesn't have to be LS) in
a gold- capped ceramic through-hole DIP package? And if so,
would anyone happen to have any?
One of these ?

Yup, standard gold-capped purple ceramic DIPs.
Those are made by Philips in Nijmegen (now NXP)
1966-1972 my dad
was the
production chief back then. He got the box when he left Philips in
1972.
The whole FJ series are logic family, if you want more info I have
to dig
thpough some papers and books.
Very nice! I'm specifically looking for 74xx244s in that
package. I only need a handful.
