Re: Marconi ?
I don't know the model or maker, but the licence plate which mentions the Gramophone Co, not EMI indicates a date between 1929 and 1931, when EMI was formed. The set wasn't made by Marconi or the Gramophone Co but used their patents.

Re: Marconi ?
Quite likely not to be Marconi. Date probably late '20s. Could be a commercially offered kit set, a home brew wouldn't have the white licence plate.
Might be traceable from the licence number?

Re: Marconi ?
Possibly a Fellows radio, they used this case on the Fellows Premier Four.

Re: Marconi ?
The Lissen name on one of the components might be a clue to the maker. I think Lissen also made components for other manufactureres too.
