I have a transistor Nordmende Transita de Luxe circa 1963.
Bought at a flea market in Fribourg, Switzerland about 12 years ago. Nice build quality. I just popped in some batteries, and it works great.
I like these old-school transistors, with the thin plywood case more reminiscent of a tube portable.
