These large early transistor radios are so well made. They're practically a small table radio of the period in sound quality. This black version was cleaned-up like a jewel and I painstakingly touched-up the gold graphics. They came in a slew of colors including red and turquoise. The design is very "mid-century" abstract with random patterned grill slats and free-form stalks that lead up to the tuning knob and on/off/vol control. "Vanguard" was the first launch rocket to send Americas first satellite into space.
