The Original 1973 vintage "BATMAN" AM Transistor Radio is a collectible piece that holds historical significance as a rare find from the same year as the popular Batman TV series. Produced in Hong Kong by an unbranded manufacturer, this radio showcases a unique design featuring the iconic Batman logo. With its nostalgic appeal and originality, this transistor radio serves as a unique piece of memorabilia for collectors of vintage electronics or fans of the Batman franchise. I put a battery in the radio and it turns on. I was unable to tune in any AM stations. Makes a great display piece.
