Just the front view available. No markings. Possibly a concept or home built set.
Beautiful clean 40's era design. I like the symmetry.

That's a good call Eric. I don't see what appears to be a channel selector.

Wow Peter,

Thanks for the I.D. Eric was on the right track and you confirmed it.
I would never have thought of B&O as the manufacturer.

What's the story on that set? It's obviously one of the
Holy Grails.

Check the link to the site Peter Scott posted: http://beophile.com/?page_id=8458. Not many of these manufactured.

There's a mark on the center grill section (second bar up from bottom)that leads me to believe the picture you posted in your OP is the same exact set as is pictured in Peter Scott's link. In fact there's a few other marks in those pictures that lead me to believe they originate from the exact same photo.

I agree Kevin, The photo is exactly the same. I originally saw the photo posted on my Facebook page w/o any description or information. Posted photo to VK and received from Peter all I needed to know. VK is super for this.

I must confess that I didn't know it was B&O, I just copied the photo into Google image search (click on the little camera symbol to access) and got a few locations for it.

Peter

I was not aware that one could do that with photos. What a handy feature!
It seems that photos have become a huge rip-off item on the internet.
