I'm assuming he went through a battery supplier, special order, not just on a store shelf. So that would've been 20 years ago. Still impressive that it was available that late.
20 years ago, the Eveready 467 was still being made, as there was a little demand for them. They were expensive back then.
I have one of those GE Convertibles. The clock has the AC power supply when used on AC. I don't think it was a big seller.
