1959 Channel Master 6503
Shirt pocket radio, thermoplastic cabinet
4 1/4 x 2 1/2 x 1 3/8 inches / 108 x 64 x 35 mm
Five transistors (Toshiba), superheterodyne circuit
One standard 9-volt battery
Manufactured by Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd., Japan

One of several very handsome transistor radios produced by Sanyo and distributed by Channel Master. The overall design is a bit sqarish and angular, but the detailing is sweet, and so much reverse-painted plastic! (I find the black cabinet version to be the better looking of the two.)
