Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Robert, who writes:
Hi Thomas – I am a huge fan of space movies and recently watched the 1967 film “Countdown” starring James Caan and Robert Duvall. There is a radio sitting on the nightstand in a hotel room in this scene.
Maybe your readers can identify it?
Cheers,
Robert
Thanks, Robert! This photo isn’t high definition, but I bet some of our intrepid radio sleuths will soon find the model number of this tabletop radio. Please comment!
Here is a review with that shot

It’s doesn’t have to be a Zenith, many had round dial back then.
* The TV is LG.
I don’t recognise it, but this being a 60’s film and made in the USA, the chances are it’s a Zenith. BTW, we love space and SF films, and those from the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s are our favourites.
