Hi Cathy, there were some Eveready/ Lissen sets made, just pre-war I think, but I believe these were all battery models.
That in itself is not a problem, as there are plenty of designs using modern components for units that will allow a battery set to be safely powered from the mains (a further project for your husband!)

If you are up in the Newcastle area I can certainly test the valves for you, and give you pointers on restoration, but the may be other forum members who are closer.
