THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
Straight from the late 60s and the exploding Japanese miniature electronics market of that era comes this amusing little novelty set. It's a seven-transistor, one diode superhet packed into a small (less than 5" tall) replica whiskey bottle. The cap is the on switch and volume, the unmarked tuning wheel and speaker are on the back. This thing is brand-new, still in its original packaging, with no marks, flaws, scratches, or scuffs. Includes original earphone and instruction sheet (which even includes a schematic.) The batteries, which were also included, are missing, and that's probably for the best as they were two 2.6 volt mercury batteries. I have no idea what the modern equivalent is, but it's sold as "untested" and is great as a display. It comes packed in its original box, resembling a book in a slipcase, both of which are in pristine condition. An amusing little piece of history and conversation piece. Like all my stuff, this will be well-packed. It's light and small so shipping should be very reasonable. |
