Hi there. I work with a charity which recently acquired this donation. We would love to find it a new home but first need a little information on what it is and any tips on best places to sell for fundraising. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi and welcome to our forum

It's a Marconi 345 0f 1936 vintage.

Nice little set.

Most likely place to get best return is eBay but Facebook market place is also becoming popular and of course there are no fees.

Cheers
