I might, may take my tin snips and get the gold fingers too if they're far enough from the nearest relay. I don't have these in my possession, I buy from a scrap yard but saw these and wanted to figure out what I was getting into if I bought them.

Thanks again to everyone for the help with these.

Definitely.

Looks like there’s at least two different relay designs on there and one is definitely MWR.
Sorry it took so long to get back. I had trouble dialling in to the old manuals BBS I use when I come across something I can’t find on my own.

(Yes they still exist, yes they take just as long as before to do /anything/ on them).

There were three different relays I could identify. Most were the blue writing from C.P.Clare, a few were Potter Brumsfield (and one of those was different from the rest). One of the PB looked like it had a "WE" mark but again it was so worn it might not have been a W or an E. Anyways, I do appreciate the help, if there's any additional info you want to share I always appreciate the opportunity to learn, but I think I have what I need on these. Going to have some more cards to post that are slightly different than the previous couple sets.
