Murphy P71 (1959)
(wood tube portable radio)

Murphy P71 (1959)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Here is an ultra-rare, New Zealand-made 1959 Murphy P71 seven-transistor portable battery (4 x size "D") powered radio in near-mint condition. Murphy radios were manufactured for Fisher & Paykel Ltd by Allied Industries Ltd. The wood(?) case has green speckled paint and shows minor wear and scuffs, overall excellent shape, as is the light green vinyl speaker cover. All metal trim is in good shape, too, as is the handle; the handle buckles have minor oxidation. The plastic dial is also in very good condition, with a few areas showing age. It sounds great and plays fairly loud and clear. A gorgeous and unique radio in remarkably clean condition. About 12"W x "H x 4"D. Batteries not included.
