  • Texaco Fire Chief Gasoline Gas Pump Radio & labeled: "Clean Clear Golden Texaco Motor Oil";
    Radio shaped as red gasoline pumping station in ~1930's style (single hose fixed on right side). (Made in Hong-Kong for Synanon ©1985, unproven). Compare with similar shaped but different branded and colored versions. Voltage & FM reception indicates much more 1995 as manufacturing era. Compare with similar shaped but different branded and colored versions. Tuning on front, volume control at rear side.
