Re: Graves?
Many thanks Mike, very pleased to have that confirmed after all these years.
PS, having been rummaging in mum's loft, I think I need to talk to you some time regarding disposal of a couple of items - unfortunately my house hasn't got any bigger since you collected the A8 with gram unit and stand from me all those years ago! NHH

Re: Graves?
This Graves receiver was found in an attic.
Is this the Regional Three model? DFWB. |

Re: Graves?
Certainly looks like the illustration in Radio-Radio!
Wonder why they marketed two such similar sets at around the same time - about the only significant difference appears to be the inclusion of a volume control (by rheostat in SG filament circuit) on the 'Screened Grid Three'.

Re: Graves?
I am sat in the Graves library , Sheffield, as I read this but a quick look upstairs did not tell me more than has been said here.

Re: Graves?
That's interesting, I knew J G Graves was a Sheffield man and something of a public benefactor - does the library hold much material on the company itself?
