From 1915 until 1944, this packaging was part of GE's Vacuum Tubes collection. People would use vacuum tubes in electronics to regulate the electron flow by switching the on and off switch. The usage of Vacuum tubes contributed to the functioning of all electronic communication equipment used in daily life, such as radios, televisions, and vacuum cleaners. It not only assisted consumers in using everyday items, but it also saved Britain during WWII by using radios to communicate with the soldiers. Other engineers and physicists who had experimented with John Fleming’s objects had taken notice. Since the 1950s, we had stopped using Vacuum Tubes because they couldn't tolerate the high frequency. Also, technology had advanced at that point, and as newer products were developed, manufacturers were able to produce newer versions rather than the older ones.
