Thats a neat radio. I never saw that one before. Yes, it is indeed a '68 model by production, but it uses a chassis introduced first in 1966.

As for the last tube type zenith radio, 1969 was the last year with the model Z316, which is a very plain basic AM FM table radio. One of my personal favorite zenith radios happens to be their first solid state set form '66. They are hard to find in nice shape. Its a model N890 which had two individual side by side slide rule dials for AM and FM. That was a great radio and every one I've ever found was beat to hell.
