"Michael Jack: Hitachi TH-667
An early Hitachi coatpocket radio dating from 1959. The TH-667 was initially released in 1958 but this is a later version. There's a thick section of gold reverse paint on the right side (surrounding the dials).
In addition to this seafoam green cabinet the 667 came in a light (powder) blue and pink."
The earliest incarnation of this radio used black, oval transistors. This is a later model sporting silver, cylindrical transistors."

"The TH-667 was released in May 1958 and sold in three colours, the green shown above as well as pink and light blue. The radio may be rather large, but it does feature a smart design highlighted by the shape and gold reverse paint used for the dial area at the right edge.
170 x 110 x 44 mm"

Transistors: (Hitachi) HJ-23D x 1, HJ-22D x 2, HJ-15 x1, HJ-17D x 2, [1N34A]
Speaker: 3-1/2"
Output: 120mW (distortion free), 170mW (maximum)
Power source: 6V : UM-2 (C-cells) x 4
The large speaker and ample output produce excellent sound. Hitachi's soft plastic "leak-proof battery cases" were pretty slick. They have a cap at one end and the holes at each end are just large enough to allow the batteries to make contact. We find these battery cases in a couple of other early Hitachi radios as well, including the TH-668 and WH-667. You can make out the Hitachi mark on the electrolytic capacitors, but a peek underneath reveals that they are OEM parts made by Nippon Chemi-con.
Note that the oval transistors pictured above were only used in the TH-667 for the first few months of production. Units produced after August or September 1958 contain cylindrical transistors of the next generation.

Très bon état (même les étiquettes sur les boîtiers de la batterie sont toujours présentes), mais la sangle est manquante.

Non testé (nécessite des piles ventrales).

Remarque :
lors du formatage/publication de cette annonce et en regardant de plus près les photos prises, j'ai tout de même dû remarquer une petite réparation bien camouflée dans le coin en haut à droit à l'arrière (voir les dernières photos).
