I was thinking of Ralph Kramden.

I don't know why because when I think about it I don't think bus drivers (in my lifetime) used these change counters.

A Good Humor Chocolate Eclair, please. And, don't forget the change, Mr. Ice Cream Man!  😁

I hate it when I click to give a "Thumbs Up!" and then I see the count go down by one. That means that at some time previous I clicked a "Thumbs Up!" and I just knocked it down! Then I have to click again to fix.

It is called an electron tube that were used in older radios and TV's.

[Tempest332]

Vacuum tube as they are under vacuum.   Remember going to the tube tester at the corner appliance repair shop with dad, later it was Olson's, Lafayette  & Radio Shack.

Being a Ham (or former Ham), Tubes are still occasionally desired. 

Edit, the FCC arm of the fedzilla has made renewing licensing a total debacle if you aren't using online payment methods now.

I had several cabinets of this "cool" I couldn't give away once upon a time, now this stuff goes for a premium @ used record shops.

I used to think of these every time I saw a Chrysler PT Cruiser.

I'm still in denial. As soon as payphones went away, all romance was gone. 🥀
