Can someone date this radio?

[December]

(Sorry, despite reading the FAQ and following the instructions, I still can't get images to display!)

I bought this radio from someone on Gumtree today. I'm not a vintage purist, and it looked beautiful so when he told me he wasn't sure how old it was, I didn't mind.

It's Rhapsody De-luxe Transistor. I tried Googling it but that was fruitless.

My fiance's mum reckons it's mid-50s as she had one similar.

I was wondering what you guys here think?

This site indeed confirms the mid 50s diagnosis

I retract that...


same collector has your color model...halfway down this page and says 1964...

He has quite a lot of info....and it is that fun blue green of my mothers mid 60's pontiac car...

Fantastic Miss Neecerie, thanks for that

I'm jealous of your mum's car!

Ooh, how cute. I don't know a thing about it as for the date, though =)
