In working condition (though a little bit crackly through the speakers when the volume is altered) and good cosmetically too. There are, of course, some minor superficial signs of age and use, and the speaker grilles have suffered the odd dent or two over the years, but it's generally in good visual shape with no controls missing and no chips or cracks to the body.  The unit (without speakers detached and handle down) measures approximately 52cm (width) by 14cm (depth) by 22cm (height) (20½ in. by 5½ in. by 8½ in.). Each speaker is approximately 13cm wide and 13cm deep (5 in.).

The camera itself is in very good shape with only minor wear to the outer plastic case as would be expected and has fully working mechanisms - the "bellow" lens opens and closes smoothly and there are no tears. We have not been able to test it as a working camera due to lack of film, but we have no reason to think it should not work. It does however make for an excellent addition to a camera collection or simply as a display piece. The documentation adds that little bit of extra history to the item and we think that's quite special in and of itself.

A good-looking decorative item or indeed a useful kitchen accessory (although please note we can't guarantee absolutely accurate time-keeping from an item which is 40+ years old!)

The bobbin measures approximately 16cm (6½ in) in height with a base diameter of 6cm (2¼ in).
