Vintage Sinclair Gasoline Dino Transistor Radio that looks like an old gas pump. This radio includes the original box, pamphlet, and a Flying Bomb BL 006P transistor radio 9 volt battery. The leather case and wrist strap are in good shape, one corner has a crack in the leather as shown. There is no earpiece included. The battery was still connected inside the radio when we opened it. It has a little corrosion on the back side and some is o...n one of the connectors. We put a new battery in and the radio powers up and it tunes into waves but even with the volume up high it is very faint. The radio stations were not local ones, so not sure of the frequency it's grabbing. It might need some adjustment or a little work for it to play loudly or pick up local stations. The box has some light wear as shown. Estate find, enjoy!
