1960 Toshiba 7TP-415S
2-band MW/SW shirt pocket radio, thermoplastic cabinet
4 5/8 x 2 7/8 x 1 3/8 inches / 117 x 73 x 35 mm
Seven transistors (Toshiba), one tubular 9-volt battery
Manufactured by Tokyo Shibaura Electric Co. Ltd. (Toshiba), Kawasaki, Japan
A MW/SW model much less commonly found than the 7TP-352 series, and much more handsome and slightly smaller (1/8 inch smaller on both height and width, but same depth). Beautiful, colorful reverse-painted plastic tuning area and a teal painted metal speaker grille. This set has a pale gray front half and teal back half.
I think this 7TP-415S model and the snazzier looking 7TP-382S model are among the nicest shirt pocket radios made by Toshiba.
