This radio performs really very well I was surprised how well it does sound and how many stations it receives. Tubes have all been checked on my checker. It has been electronically restored with all old capacitors replaced with new and new filters too, so there's no hum. It might have been made as a prize gift for someone perhaps, as I have searched and cant find another like it. It has probably been in a drawer since 1964.A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Z - Gallery of RadiosĪbbotwares Z477 Golden Horse & Rider (1947) (Metal tube novelty radio) This is a very special set in Gold, very different from all the others I have ever seen. The original box has a little wear on the one corner. New batteries were used to test the radio. Original batteries were included, but were in the box and NOT in the radio (that's a good thing!). The case looks brand new. The radio works and plays loud and clear. It looks like the owner may have used it a couple of times (there are a few scratches where you insert the batteries), but other than that it is in excellent condition with no other scratches. This radio had one previous owner and was received as a gift while attending a convention in San Francisco in 1964. Even with the additional two transistors, the suggested price was still under $20.00 It was offered in three color combinations. It’s beautiful grill and smart circular dial make it quite attractive as well. A similar sized set, this one had 8 transistors and packed a punch. The Royal 59 – The family continued into model year 1965 with the introduction of the Royal 59. However, with the increasing competition from overseas and the constant introduction of new pocket-sized radios, this series had a much shorter production run than it’s big brother the Royal 500.ĭuring the early 1960’s, Zenith continued to produce some other styles of shirt pocket sized transistors that were manufactured in the USA until 1965. They produce 80 milliwatts of undistorted sound. Because of their styling and performance, Royal 50’s remain a popular choice of collectors today. The Royal 50’s offered great sound quality for their size and were built with high quality components that allowed them to stand up to years of use. They represented Zenith’s entry into the smaller 6 transistor shirt pocket sized radios and was their answer to the sets coming out of Japan like the Sony TR610 and the Hitachi 666 both of which started in 1958. The Royal 50 family consists of three generations that were produced from 1960 through 1963. Powered by 2 AA batteries the radio has eight transistors, a 2.4 inch speaker, a built in antenna, and picks up AM standard broadcast stations. Considered a pocket size radio it weighs 7 oz. This vintage Zenith Royal 59 (Model R59C) transistor radio from the early 1960s is in excellent condition and includes the original box.
