This Zephyr GR-3T6 was manufactured in Japan circa 1958. I am unsure who the manufacturer is but have a look inside it at the bottom of the page for some clues… It is a rather striking and impressive design. There is a variation of this radio in my collection branded as a Peerless with the same model number. This radio is also seen as a Global or Star Lite.

The top of this radio is wider than the bottom so care needs to be taken when placing it on a surface. Check out the unusual shape side on. The coin slot is on the top instead of the bottom; this radio is just full of contradictions. It is very futuristic looking and looks modern and sharp even today.
