Vintage S.I.D.E 5000Ω Bakelite Switched Potentiometer (Valve Radio / TV etc.) G+
In good condition, there is one solder point terminal on the back of the item that looks like it has snapped off, there is still enough to solder a good connection though.
The outer bakelite case is good, some light surface wear.
The rotation control is smooth and there is a loud click when the pot is switched into 'off' position.
This looks sealed so unable to clean internally.
Condition: Good
Type: Electronics
Era: 1960's
