For all you vintage CB collectors (like Me)...

A brand new in the box never used still sealed in the original plastic
bag 1975 Royce 1-612 23 channel mobile CB gets opened for the first
time! It even smells new!

I left the pictures big, so you could see all the details! Modem users
may have to wait awhile for all the pictures to load.

Enjoy!

I did not have the heart to take it out of the plastic after all these
years. It is still sealed in the original plastic bag right now, and
back in the box.


Damn. That is an ancient golden oldie.
I haven't seen a vertical meter in ages.
If I'm not mistaken, the "gyro-lock" referred to the style of the
mounting bracket.
Seems to me like the company was in business only a few years and went
under.



It'a amazing how many of these you can find. Yet I go to an occasional
estate sale or garage sale, and have never seen even a broken CB.

Where do they find this ****? It's near mint. He might get $150 for this.

I had one of those back in the 70's. That one looks nice.
