This old-timer comes with its power cord and leather travel case. It powers it up with both regular and battery power. I did insert a cassette and it initially played. After I tested the forward and reverse features (which both work) I played the tape again and it made a screeching sound. I cleaned the head and it played again, but when I came back to it after dinner the screeching sound returned. It also started screeching when reversing and fast forwarding. I was not able to test the... record feature since I have no blank cassettes. There are no breaks, cracks or repairs in the unit. It seems to be missing the battery panel, but I'm not sure if there was one since there is a snap access door from the leather case. A very clean looking unit.
Since this seems to work intermittently you are buying this AS IS. Perhaps it's any easy fix, but it is beyond my meager know how.
