Sadly,.. the back is missing. It also has the Tele-Zoom remote control, which is a bonus as these often go missing. It is also extremely heavy.

Nice find! Those are so impressive, especially that model with the porthole screen. Very primitive looking. For backs you can buy metal sheets on eBay that have the same hole pattern as typically used. It makes for a very convincing replacement. Good luck with the resto on that one! Good you took the old filter off. Those are an eyesore.
