Vintage Roberts R900 MW/LW/FM Black Portable Transistor Radio 

This is a very nice working example of a 1980s Vintage Roberts R900 MW/LW/FM Black Portable Transistor Radio. This radio has recently been fully checked, serviced, cleaned and polished.

As this is a more than 30 years old radio it does have some age related defects, but in general it looks stunning and will be a great addition to any radio collection. 

It is complete and original, and in good working cosmetic condition. The black leatherette cloth covered cabinet is in good condition with a few superficial scuffs. There are a few small blemishes on the grille and teak sides. The chrome of the metal handle is slightly scuffed, and the original knobs and buttons are slightly pitted.
