Condition:
Vintage mid century Channel Master portable table radio in very good condition with light wear from age and use. Light surface wear including yellowing and discoloration, scuffs, scratches, marks, and glue residue. Radio seems to be in good working condition--tested using 4 old D batteries and could sometimes get a station or two attempt to tune in, but volume knob was static-y or complete silence; could be the radio itself, or the weak batteries. Tuner moves across the spectrum properly. All buttons and knobs are present and work properly. No cracks or damage in the plastic casing. Original foil label on bottom shows wear. Vintage portable tabletop transistor radio with iconic mid century style uses 4 D batteries and has a convenient handle on top for easy portability.
