On this page are links to some valve-equipment-related websites that I think are useful or interesting. If you have a question about a specific piece of equipment, manufacturer or whatever, don’t forget that Google Is Your Friend. Someone, somewhere has probably posted the information you need...
N.B. I have no connection with any of these sites, so can’t take any responsibility for their content.
Sites with information about (and examples of) valve equipment restoration
Tony Thompson’s site: www.vintageradioworld.co.uk
Paul Stenning’s site: http://www.vintage-radio.com
Martin Francis’s Vintage Wireless Database: www.classaxe.com/wireless/data/
Each of these sites contains a long list of further links, so in an ideal world you could avoid useful work indefinitely!
Suppliers

Interested in vintage radio programmes? BBC Radio 7 carries a wide variety of classic comedies and drama. In the U.K. you can access R7 in a number of ways, including access via the internet through BBC iPlayer
You can obtain your own copies of vintage radio programs from a number of different sources. One example is Old Time Radio - a U.S. site that carries a huge number of American shows (and a good number of British ones, too) http://www.otrcat.com/
