Default Help to identify an old TV set

Hi all,

I don't suppose anybody can help identify the maker, model and year of manufacture for this TV set please?

Many thanks in advance!

Either Peto-Scott or Portadyne. Date of manufacture 1958. Probably the only surviving set of this type.

Agree. A nice easy restoration especially for a new enthusiast. Not in any way valuable but LOPT and Tube are usually very good. John.

Rediffusion sets of that era had box like cabinets. A picture of the internals would help us to identify the make and model. I'm still convinced it's a de-badged Peto-Scott or Portadyne.
