A nice shirtpocket radio diminished a bit by its somewhat plain-looking brushed-aluminum face -- but it does have quite a few touches of color brightening it up, such as the yellow tuing dial and the red volume knob (the opposite color combination found on the c.1959 Matsushita National AB-235), as well as the aqua-colored cabinet back half.
