Looks like a HMV Radiogram, I dont know what model but I have seen the same font and style on a hmv. ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ Valve radios, They just don't make them like they used to |

I thought either HMV due to the style of knobs or Precedent as one of their console tuning dials were made the same way. An Internet search returned a duck egg. ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ A valve a day keeps the transistor away... |

Yes, I'm seeing a similarity with what I think is a Precedent (Breville) dial on the queried 3-in-1 in the TV section a little while back. |
