Having searched for ages, I've managed to get hold of a Beau Decca. Unfortunately it has been stripped of its workings- so is likely to be a long term project to get it back to operation. The cabinet is in lovely condition though. My limited budget will prevent me getting the missing bits immediately, but I'm happy to bide my time and see what comes up. Eventually I'l like to get all the original bits, but in the meantime perhaps I can get it part working using some temporary components. I'd welcome any advice as to what may be an affordable alternative to the original amp until I can acquire the genuine article.

I'm happy to use a non-original deck as I plan to use it lots and find 78s just too short- but the rest of it I would like to restore to original condition eventually.

Here are some photos of the 'project'. This unit was originally sold by MORGAN OF BONDGATE. Any help or information on the Beau Decca gratefully received.
