From the early 1950s until the late 1970s, many radios, record players and multi-function entertainment units, such as radiograms and stereograms, were manufactured in Australia, largely from Australian Components.
The 1963 Pale-Pink AWA B28 was a portable, battery-operated mono record player, which provided a stylish & affordable option for the youth market. While not a high-quality item, it included AWA's revultonary, locally produced transistor amplifier.
In 1957, AWA (Amalgamated Wireless Australasia Ltd) was the first Australian Manufacturer to produce a transistor radio.
