That's altogether rather vague. Model & Valve numbers would be useful as at that time there was a lot of chopping & changing . Red Philips / Mullard could be "P" base or octal?

Numbers like EBF35, ECH35 will be more likely.

Why do you want to change valves? If they are working leave well alone. I have put Radios back in service with some original tubes in them dating to the 1920's.

If it died & the paper & electrolytic capacitors have not been changed by now, they should have been as they will be past or near the end of their unreliable life.
