Known historically as “The Royalty of Radio, ” this mid-century modern classic features the iconic mechanical flip-up dial built into a sleek, textured black suitcase-style housing. This listing is a rare find because it includes the original paper “Operating Guide” booklet and factory inspection tag! – Complete Interior: Back cover opens smoothly to reveal an exceptionally clean (free of damage, dust present because I didn’t want to accidentally mess anything up), unaltered metal chassis. All vintage vacuum tubes are present and intact. Exterior Cosmetics: The black suitcase shell, heavy-duty carry handle, and protective bottom feet are structurally solid. The gold-accented Zenith crest emblem looks wonderful. Shows minor, typical vintage surface wear/scuffs consistent with age. Small surface crack on the plastic shell, but not large crack. (please review all high-resolution photos). I added a video where the radio is heard and I adjust the volume in the unit. Perfect for antique electronics collectors, vintage ham radio hobbyists, or as an authentic MCM decorative accent piece.
