In the movie Diamonds Are Forever (1971), listens Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Charles Gray) to a Philips 22RL798 Antoinette Transworld de Luxe radio. This radio is perfectly in the picture when Blofeld listens to a News commercial about nucleaire explosions in North Dakota and Russia, created by himself.


Transworld de Luxe Antoinette radio is produced by the Dutch electronic company Philips. The radio measures 370 x 260 x 120 mm, weights 6 kg, and uses 6 x 1,5 volt D-batteries, and stands on a 360 degrees platform to turn radio instead of antenna's

Philips 22RL798 Antoinette Transworld de Luxe radio's are quite rare and so now and than appears on eBay.

Probebly Blofeld had a weak for Philips products, you'll see more Philips product in this movie, Philips N2205 cassette recorder & Philips C90 cassette.20210307_154109[1].jpg20210307_154118.jpg20210307_154126.jpg20210307_154136.jpgheater.jpg< This radio was compared with a heater >bond1.jpg
