Can anybody identify this Philips? Somebody has sent me this picture. To my mind, it looks around 1954, but of course I could be getting it wrong. I've already trawled the RadioMuseum site to look for a similar looking set, but haven't found one.

Cheers,

Steve

Not an exact match but very close?

Gosh thanks! I'd say you've solved it. Looks like I guessed the date right.

You were spot on, nice early FM radio.
