Sylvania 8035 / CT4251 selector (13-pin compact base; pictured in thumbnail)
Sylvania CT-4251 selector (13-pin compact base)
Sylvania 8353 selector (13-pin compact base)
The 8035 is a high speed selector tube in a small compactron-style envelope. The 8035 has a Penning fill gas and a maximum counting speed of 100 kHz. The tube has a standard 13 pin base, and will fit in both 13 pin Nixie tube sockets, and 20 pin sockets like those used for the 6167 and MO-10R counting tubes. Early internal versions of this tube are only marked with the CT-4251 Sylvania internal part number, and lack the 8035 designation.
Sylvania also released the 8353, internally identical to a 8035 but with a neon fill.

An earlier sample of this tube lacks the 8035 designation, and is only marked with Sylvaina's internal CT-4251 part number.
Sylvania 8353, a 4kHz variant of the 8035. Like other neon-filled variants, the 8353 is much less outgas-prone than its Penning-filled counterpart.
