Throwback Thursday got us thinking about the radio that we first discovered music on. The Panasonic R-70 Panapet Transistor Radio. Did you have one?

Remember rocking out to this? Our mom won this during a Tupperware sales promotion. Yup, mom sold Tupperware.

The Panasonic R-70 White Panapet Transistor AM Radio with chain. Yes, it was the coolest radio ever. Back in the 70's (when we still had to take a nap) we would try to position it so a radio station would come in. It also fit nicely in the flower basket on our purple bicycle with the sparkly banana seat and long beautiful tassels.

These are worth some money on ebay. Our old radio goes from a couple of bucks up into the hundreds. Wow, if we only still had our old stuff!.
