This ray-shaded version of the 1970 Letraset classic is similar to Rock Opera but with fewer stripes. Perhaps another transfer type or phototype outfit offered this style. I love everything about this box, including the “HOT & SPICY SOUND” and the crowd of sports fans holding their sausage soundmakers. These photos and object come from the collection at the California Historical Radio Society.\n\nPennsylvania-based Amico manufactured (in Hong Kong and Taiwan) many models of novelty transistor radios, including King Kong, The Pink Panther, and another food-based audio product: the Chocolate Cookie Radio.\n\n\n\n\n_**Source: hub.catalogit.app **License: All Rights Reserved. _\n\nThis post was originally published at Fonts In Use\n\n* * *",
