| Notes | Was advertised as the world's smallest and lightest phonograph with a built in 6 transistor radio. Most probably made by Takt Denki Co., Ltd. Tokyo, Japan. Also sold as the Stellar 6, Takt TPR-72, Sandhurst model 6 Transistor Phonoradio TPR 61 and Takt Denki model Drifter Transistor Phonoradio TPR-61. An inside view indicates the number "1962 5 28" which could be a hint for the production year of this specimen. However, for the model TPR-61 we actually have no evidence for the real market introduction. US Importer : Arrow Trading Co. |
