For sale:  Regency Model TR-1 transistor radio, the first transistor radio
commonly available. This one is red. It is NOT in working condition, and
has no battery. 

The plastic case is is poor condition.  There is a missing piece of the
side of the case near the earphone jack, and some cracks and scratches on
all surfaces.  The brass dial is also scratched and has a small dent.

Also included is what remains of the original leather case, but it too is in
rather bad condition.  The leather is cracking and powdery.  The clasp
is missing.  The earphone pouch and belt loop on the back are also missing.

I don't want to misrepresent this radio -- it is NOT working and NOT in good
condition. I've included a link to quite a few pictures that show the defects.
(Click on the thumbnails for more detail.)  Nevertheless, it is a classic and
the first of its kind.

Sold as is.  Asking $100 or best offer, plus shipping from 07042.

Thanks for looking.
