Zenith Royal 1000 Trans-Oceanic (1958)
(plastic transistor portable radio w/SW)
|
One of the first Zenith Transoceanic 1000's made in 1958. You can tell the difference from next years models as it has Genuine Leather stamped on the front cover and the Battery Box is mounted to the back. Also, it is designed different as well as it has steel rollers for the dial string versus plastic. The 1000's are superb AM and Shortwave players. Much better than most radios of that era and even today. This one had not been used that much as the alignment was right on. I have replaced all the electrolytic and wax caps. It has been aligned for peak performance. The case inside and out is exceptional. The battery box looks like it has not been used. It comes with a pristine battery box, external wave magnet antenna, a log book and a Owners Manual. $395.00. (0040511)
