Looking for someone who might have the 1977 New Avengers Season 2 DVD set. Needing caps from Episode 6, "Obsession." Please contact me if you can help!
Does anyone have the New Avengers, Season 2 on DVD? I need a Prop Screencap!

Ironic that the episode that one of the most elusive props ever, is aptly called "Obsession". Damn I love this hobby.

A really good screen grab of this radio (the one that Lewis Collins - Bodie!! -has)...
As said, season 2 episode 5 (I think) 'Obsession'...
What we are after is if there a name of the radio manufacturer or model on it...

I spent a good portion of my day cruising my iphone looking for this radio.
The air date of this episode "Obsession" was October 6 1977. Could this be a 1960's item or are we looking for a WWII item I wonder.
Bodie (like the show) was British right? I've never seen it but since these guys started looking for the radio box I have learned some. Brodie was SAS. I've tried looking up british and german radios.
I've tried Clansman and Larkspur brands. Came up empty.

Okay, I'll bite - what's the big deal about this radio?

Here you go; best I could manage from the DVD:
and
I'm thinking civilian use rather than military.

You have made a small group of us very very happy! We are still trying to find an original, but if not, your screencaps have given us details to replicate the radio to a degree of accuracy never dreamed of previously! Thanks for helping us out!
BTW, totally agree with your assessment that this is a civilian radio.

After Googling a bit, I found that the Panasonic GX 400 radio is very similar in style:
The speaker 'grill' is a similar style, but what is more interesting is that the tuning dial is a very close match. I've not spotted a similar model, so maybe a lower cost copy / clone?
I blew up, squared off and straightened the grab Shagger provided:
Close up of the label - looks like a white on green sticker?
Can't make out the oval logo, but that could be 247, or 447?

I can't take credit for it. This is a massive group effort going on over at the MEPD. This piece has been eluding us for years. We are closer than ever, but still don't have it...
My god - you guys are amazing at not only finding out what these items are but where they can e found elsewhere.
