PICKED THIS UP TODAY FOR $2.00. I PUT A NEW BATTERY IN IT AND IT WORKS FINE. JUST LIKE THE FIRST TRANSISTOR I HAD, YOU HAVE TO MOVE IT AROUND TO PICK UP ANY STATIONS. THE DIAL HAS A SMALL CRACK IN IT BUT OVERALL IN GOOD CONDITION. THE CARRY CASE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.NO IDEA AS TO YEAR.
This great looking Candle radio was made by Tokyo Transistor Industry Co Ltd circa 1961. Tokyo Transistor Industry Co Ltd manufactured radios under many brand names and successfully marketed them through department and drug stores. They produced radios bearing names such as Universal, Omegas, Goldtone, O.M.G.S, Krysler, Candle & probably others. Here's a great link for you: http://www.transistor.org/collection/collection.html
