description
If you look in the transistor collector guides, you'll find a transistor globe radio listed under the Fleetwood brand name. Inside the globe is a conventional six-transistor receiver powered by six AA batteries. The radio has a comparativly large 3-inch speaker. The speaker faces downward, toward the "South Pole". You can see the vents for the white plastic speaker grille in the first photo. The controls are visible in the next photo's. At the "North Pole" is the black power/ volume control. The sliding tuner control extends from North to South poles. Directly below it, in the black plastic base, is a little jack for an earphone. Its globe markings are protected by a thick layer of tough, clear plastic, preventing it from damage. This radio is in very good vintage condition and comes with 6 AA batteries.
