I once sold a valve on ebay, to China or Japan? It was a Brimar (can't remember the number), marked BVA and also foreign. He complained bitterly that it was a fake because of the conflicting labels. SO, In a few minutes I found various makes of valves also with this same labeling on google images. I sent him a list of the links. He never replied!
I must admit though, to have BVA and Foreign printed alongside, does not ring true!
