1950s Vintage Masteradio Car Radio Model 701 With Some Accessories & Original Box

This lovely looking 12 volt radio is a 1950s Vintage Masteradio Car Radio Model 701 With Some Accessories & Original Box. It hasn't been tested and we don't know whether or not it is working. It comes with its power supply unit but no speaker.

The radio is in very good condition with some scuffs, scratches and other blemishes. The box is intact but grubby and slightly tatty.

Comes with a few accessories including a Mounting bracket, and Dynamo Suppressor Condenser and resistors. There are two accompanying leaflets dated to April 1952; one for Masteradio general accessories and the other for car radio aerials.
