Thought these were cool, didn't realize what they were till I pulled them out of the radio carcass.  Assume they were made in-house by Majestic Radio way back when.  Mica insulator between the metal plates.  Haven't taken a reading yet.

A couple of octal plug relays.  The WE piece is in the hall of shame, always showing up on ebay listed as a transformer for $$$, bad pic with word 'relay' never shown.  Always a (soon to be angry) sucker ready and willing to buy them.  The one on the right should make a nice can for restuffing with something.

mmm.. when I was a kid, I enjoyed dissecting old (defunkt) tube radios.
sometimes, my relatives gave me theirs instead of dumping them ...
 
This radio was trashed, but had some nice early 4 pin tube sockets, 3 hefty potted audio transformers with shiny plated cases, etc.  Had to save some parts, as usual.
