A very nice looking six-transistor small portable radio (just a bit too bulky to be coat pocket size). I'm assuming that this was the second Voxson transistor radio — unlike the first Voxson transistor model, the 2-band LW/MW 725 Zephyr, this set was a one-band MW radio that employed European transistors rather than RCA transistors.
