Here we have the second transistor radio released by Sharp (Hayakawa Electric Co., Ltd.) in mid 1957.
This model sported the nickname "Peppy" in a Sharp ad from the summer of 1957. Methinks Sharp was taking the term "pet name" a bit too literally . ;-)

A complete entry on this model will eventually appear on my site, including chassis pics, a bit of history, and more stories of spicy pet names.

Searcher XL - Japanese import. In immaculate condition. This 1980 Sharp model has some super cool features so i thought deserved a good photograph once i got it back from the service engineer.
Dorothea Sharp was born in Dartford in Kent in 1874 but it was not until the age of twenty-one that she began her artistic education in earnest. She soon moved to Paris where she was greatly influenced by the work of the Impressionists, which is evident in the spontaneous style and strong sense of colour and light that she is so well known for. Techniques, such as outlining figures with bright colours, were also adopted by Sharp after seeing the paintings of Matisse and van Gogh. In the mid 1940s she returned to London where she lived until her death in 1955.

One of the Sharpes Volvo Olympians showed up on Derby Road on 17.7.18
Here's another ex-Dublin Olympian just under 10 years previous:

He was born on or near our house and I've photographed him several times but this is my best shot to date.
Towards the end of the day, back in Nottingham, this was pretty much the last thing we spotted before calling it quits due to the fading light. Sharpes ex-Dublin Alexander bodied Volvo B7TL VJI 625 is bizarrely parked up at the side of Maid Marian Way in Nottingham city centre.

I was driving at 85 miles and hour down a deserted straight desert road when the highway came to a sudden curve. Before I went flying off the road I took this picture.

THE TALE often told about Michelangelo forming a statue speaks of how spiritual formation takes place in the heart:
~The Lion in the Marble~
There was once a sculptor who worked hard with hammer and chisel on a large block of marble. A little child who was watching him saw nothing more than large and small pieces of stone falling away left and right. He had no idea what was happening. But when the boy returned to the studio a few weeks later, he saw, to his surprise, a large, powerful lion sitting in the place where the marble had stood. With great excitement, the boy ran to the sculptor and said, “Sir, tell me, how did you know there was a lion in the marble?” (an Old Jewish Tale)
The little boy’s question to the sculptor is a very real one, perhaps the most important question of all. The answer is, “I knew there was a lion in the marble because before I saw the lion in the marble, I saw him in my own heart.
