Tube ID help (plus tube score!)

Bid on an odd 5pc lot of tubes on ebay... seller said it had one GE and one RCA 12AX7 in there. Won them for about 5 bucks, plus some radio tubes.

In the RCA box was this, what brand is it? You can kind of make out an "H" and an "S."

In the GE box was a Blackburn BOA-code short plate I61 Mullard. I managed to rub off most of the ink myself (d'oh). Works and sounds great! What is it, a Mazda relabel?

The first tube I don't know, but your Mullard is produced in January 1960

I've got about 10-12 other Mullard short plates, so this is a nice addition. Hopefully someone can help with the other tube.
