A green suitcase cabinet brings the turntable and speaker together in this Sears Silvertone portable record player. Its selector offers 16, 33, 45, and 78 rpm settings, accommodating the different record speeds in one compact unit, and the lid folds closed over the turntable. Its yellow spindle has material loss. The accompanying Montgomery Ward Airline Series S1603 radio is a five-band portable covering AM, FM, MB, AIR, and PB, with a broad tuning scale, front speaker, carrying handle, and telescoping antenna. Both units powered on at cataloging. With its lid closed, the record player measures approximately 12.5" x 11.5" x 6" tall.
