Nixie tubes once very popular were
superseded by modern LCD and LED display and are no longer produced. They were
often used in calculators, measuring devices or first computers between 1950’s
and 1970’s. One major advantage of the nixie tube is that it’s cathodes are
typographically designed, shaped for legibility. Unlike modern displays, nixie’s
each digit is individually shaped resembling handwriting numerals. Nowadays due

clocks which bring attention and interest.
