It is in very nice cosmetic condition. I plugged it in for a test and it powers up and incoming message playback works. This is as far as it has been tested. It comes with the original microphone for leaving an announcement message and a modular line cord. It uses normal size cassette tapes (2 not included). Also I do not have the original instruction manual, however the directions for use are in the flap panel where the tapes are installed. This machine has been stored for over 20 years. It is dated 11/77. I would consider this a VERY, VERY RARE FIND!!!! It is perfect for nostalgic 1970's movie production, 1970's decor or a conversation piece or even to put into everyday use. I have seen a couple of these same machines go for over $150.00. I am starting the auction with a very low bid, with no reserve and sorry there are no returns. Also this item is pretty heavy, weighing about 12 pounds so shipping will reflect this. Please check my feedback it is excellent! Thanks for looking and happy bidding!!!      Place a Bid!
