I do have an Electrosonic catalog (Canada) from the mid 1960s. It is
very handy as it covers things like CDS cells, Germanium items (ratings,
etc) and other odds and ends of industrial electronics where there are
no other sources of information.

Umm, that's where I got the prices; as a matter of fact I used to work
for Electrosonic in the 60s in industrial sales, still around after
all these years...

Both you and Esonic! (Still around...)
I miss the days when ES was on electronics row - there were about five
or six surplus stores along the nearby blocks on Younge St. that sold
tons of interesting things for young hobbiests...you could by WWII tank
radios, surplus computer gear (mainframe), etc...
