Description

Portable radio receiver VEF-204, made in the USSR, late 1960s–early 1970s. Multi-band transistor radio (AM/FM and shortwave) with an integrated carrying handle and external antenna, produced by VEF (Valsts Elektrotehniskā Fabrika, Riga). The worn casing and devotional image attached to its front attest to everyday use and religious syncretism within the material culture of domestic space.
