Which headsets ?

[Mike K]

I used to buy the post war sets made here by NYLEX , these were NOS for 2 bucks in sealed boxes marked 1956.

The whole harness was a black sealed moulded affair with a large web where the leads converged and where the brand " NYLEX 1956 " was moulded onto the web. The store had hundreds of boxes of them .

The earlier type with the cloth / cotton leads were always hard to find here . I guess these NYLEX sets were made to replace the worn out WW2 headsets . The larkspur sets were yet to arrive !
