| Pye M78F Deco Portable Tube Radio For Sale | The Pye M78F is a British radio with an interesting history. The radio was introduced in 1948 and the rising sun motif on the grill (like the symbol of Japan) was offensive to the people in England who were still recovering from WWII. Soon after the radio was introduced it was called back and all that were returned were burned. A few survived and this is one of them. See my article in Antique Radio Classified for a more detailed description of what happened to the M78F.
It is small 3 x 5 1/2 x 7 inches. This radio is in wonderful shape. There are no cracks and only a few minor scratches to the 1948 solid color plastic case. If this radio was used it certainly was not used much; probably put away because of the rising sun grill; Look carefully at the pictures. The radio chassis has not been restored. The radio will be double boxed and insured to the full value allowed.
