One (1) ROSS Micro Eight Transistor Radio. The radio is housed in a black leather (faux?) case that zips to close on three sides. The cover has "ROSS Micro Eight" in gold lettering, and "Hong Kong" etched into the back. The inside of the case is a silky white farbic.
The radio is white plastic with a silver style metal cover on front. "Micro Eight Transistor" is written on top front in black lettering. There is a gold chain with clasp at the end on the left side. The ROSS logo in the the bottom left corner in white and blue. The right side has two dials: a smaller one that has "off" written on it, and a larger one underneath that has numbers "5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 16". The back has "ROSS Eight Transistor" as part of plastic casing, and "Hong Kong" in gold lettering in the bottom right. The back middle is a grate square.
It was believed that this may be donated by Lee Mishkin, but no record was found to support this.Material
