Well at least it is sure that the radiograms existed. I was really more interested in what the cabinet looked like if there was enough left to tell and its not too long ago. Something like Q or X cabinet above but with a lid on top?

Actually, I would say it was a later model, probably from the 40s. It's what I'd call a proper console model, where the cabinet was wider than it was tall, and had a single flat lid that lifted, revealing the turntable, radio & controls underneath. More like the HMV 429 etc.
