Zenith made the toob Trans-Oceanics up til 1962. Interestingly enuff, they'd started making transistor T/Os a couple years before, and sold both models as the same time. Both types of T/Os are in fairly high demand today by collectors- if yours is a pretty ione, hang on to it !! Most of 'em I've seen tend to be in pretty good cosmetic shape-they were expensive items, & as such, didn't recieve as rough treatment as their less-expensive brethren sometimes did. There is a military version the R-520/URR that was used as a morale reciever that is especially rare & desirable, as is the tan leather covered version. -Sandy G.
