Does anybody know a good resource of date codes for tubes ?
I am particularly interested in RCA (but other known brands are welcome). Yes I know about this article but I'd like a better and more complete resource.
I posted this here too since the main thread doesn't seem to be active.

Here's a good one for European Tubes:

Philips/Valvo/Mullard Valve Codes

Well the site doesn't work

, but thanks anyway. EU tubes are very good but I think they are generally better documented.
However when it comes to old US tubes ('40s-'50s) things get more obscure and everyone hangs on to what they've got
