Couldn't believe my eyes! I had one of those in 1962, bought from Henry's Radio, Edgware Road (?) London for £4.19/6d. Came with a crystal mic, had 3inch spools and no capstain, which didn't bother this 12 year old! Was a Christmas present. Where DO the props suppliers get their stuff from..... where has it been all those years and in such good condition?
