1960 Viscount/Chic KT-91
Shirt pocket radio, thermoplastic cabinet
4 1/2 x 2 7/8 x 1 3/16 inches / 113 x 70 x 32 mm
Nine transistors (Toshiba), superheterodyne circuit
Two 1.5-volt AA cells
Most likely manufactured by Crown Radio Corp., Tokyo, Japan
Distributed by Viscount (Consolidated Sewing Machine), New York
Same chassis and cabinet layout as the Kowa KT-91, Lafayette FS-91 and the Harpers GK-900. Please see my Crown production date codes page for why I believe these OEM models were made by Crown/Asahi Musen.
