Bob

the bakelites look recapped. See the fresh shiny solder around the contacts where the wires are coming through the eyelets? It s worth turning one of the over to see what's inside but I think it looks fully recapped (we can only guess as to the quality).

Dave
There are other caps. See those black rectangular things? Those are paper caps encased (potted) inside backelite shells.
They seem taken care of though.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
