A good 8877 can easily go 20 years from the last use to the next, however if
you want to be sure just run filament only for 24 hours before plate voltage.
Can’t hurt.

I just bought a new (sealed in the box) Penta 8877 that has a data sheet
indicating it was built and tested 6/13 - 11 years ago.
My search reveals some conflicting information about starting
this tube.
Any advice would be appreciated and thanks!
