    Description

    Years ago, I was driving through the White Mountains of New Hampshire, came upon a roadside yard sale and found this striking beauty sitting on a table. It’s a 1953 Capehart mode TC-62 clock radio. Of course I was drawn by its dazzling 1950’s modern design, but what really caught my attention was the fact that it’s PURPLE! Indeed, it’s one of the only original purple plastic radios I’ve ever come across.
    The case, which measures 12.5”w x 5.5”h x 5”d, is in great condition, with no cracks or chips, and both the clock and the 6-tube radio have been meticulously restored and work perfectly.
    If you’re a radio collector, or a clock collector, or a 1950’s design enthusiast or a purple enthusiast, this set is a must have. You’re not going to come across another one like it. Best of all, I am offering it here with NO RESERVE – high bidder takes it!
    I will ship this item ONLY within the United States. If you live elsewhere and are interested in it, please contact me BEFORE bidding so we can discuss the shipping charges, which can be very expensive outside the U.S. I ship once a week (whenever possible). Having received, over the years, some items that did not survive shipping, I always take care to pack very carefully. If you prefer, I will be happy to drop it off at a nearby UPS store and have it professionally packed and shipped at your expense. I reserve the right to raise or lower the shipping charges should they prove to be significantly different than those determined by the shipping calculator. I reserve the right to refuse sale to anyone with excessive negative feedback or an otherwise suspicious history. Payment is due within three (3) days of the auction's close. Due to its age I am selling this item without any warranty. All sales are final. I am not a dealer, and don’t have a big operation with a staff, so I would appreciate your patience while I take the time to pack your items with the care they deserve.
    Be sure to see all the pictures! I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have, but please try to ask as early as possible, as it sometimes takes me a while to get to my email. Please see my other listings, as I am running out of space and am thinning out my collection considerably. I have several fine items up on Ebay right now, and will be listing many more in the weeks and months to come, so please keep checking. Good luck and happy bidding!
