Sanyo 6L-08 Long and medium wave table model transistor radio housed in black plastic case with cream fascia with gold trim.

This dirty little radio was one of three purchased at auction for £ 5 in 2012. When it was acquired the exterior was very dirty, the plastic casing was cracked and the inside full of dust. The good news was that the radio burst into life when energised with a set of four 1.5 Volt D cells. Sanyo Electric Co. Ltd.; Moriguchi (Osaka) 1961
