Default BSR record player deck identification.

For some time now I've been trying to work out how many record player decks BSR actually made and what the model numbers were. In terms of the number of units sold, to me, it seems like they pretty much cornered the market both here in the UK and abroad. That's pretty amazing.

So, I thought I'd start the ball rolling with a few photos of my own specimens. Regrettably, most of the labels on the underside of the decks are missing, so I only have a handful of model numbers (assuming I've written down the correct numbers you inderstand). If anyone can fill in the gaps and/or verify the numbers that I've quoted in the file names, that would be great.

Hopefully others will have other examples that can be posted.

For the record (pardon the terrible pun), all of my examples are 240Va.c. 50Hz mains powered, but I am aware that some battery models exist.
