Description
Black and white 6 1/2″ x 10″ ad for the All-Transistor version of their Trans-Oceanic Radio. The claims are abundant in this ad being called “The world’s most magnificent radio”, saying that it “Performs where others fail…yet it’s the world’s lightest and smallest Band Spread Short Wave Portable Radio” and that it’s “Powered to tune in the world…8 Wave Bands”. It is pictured in the ad with the cover closed to be carried and with the cover open and the antenna extended with a price of $250. The text lists the different types of reception this unit is capable of and claims “92% greater power output than tube type portables”.
