Don't know the model, but it is almost definitely Sony made....I have a similar Sony: same tuning knob/form factor....The big difference is those top controls are small front knobs on mine.

Possibly GEC? GE of Canada - they imported different stuff than GE-US, wheras GE in the US made 90% of the sets in the US, either in Utica, Syracuse, or Portsmouth. GE-US usually went with Sanyo for their off-shore stuff, like TV/cassette combos.

Sony never made re-badged stuff - their subsidiary, Aiwa, did, but mostly for European markets. Aiwa made some boomboxes for Magnavox and a couple of other manufacturers.

I haven't known GE to have any portables that didn't have their name right on the front. I can't read it from this picture. Looks like channel/tuning by the knob, but where I'd expect a brand name to be is unreadable, but it surely doesn't look like "GENERAL ELECTRIC".

Total mystery to me. GE would have there logo. Often spelled
out: GENERAL (logo) ELECTRIC.
It dose have a JVC / Nivico / Delmonico flavor to it & they
sent over some real strange & rare stuff.

Yep, looks like a JVC to me. Robb, why were you thinking it was a General Electric set?

What is the screen size of this little set... the tube used in the Sony micro-tv is only about 3.6 or 3.5 inch diagonal... it looks to me as if the Nivco may have used a larger tube.

The one in the ebay listing I posted is model 4T-50A and the seller claims it is a 4-inch screen.

Well, in any case, I kinda LIKE the L'il Feller...

I have a Ross set with AM/FM radio that does look like that set.

It looks like a JVC/Nivico/Delmonico (or some combo therein!) that I have, except mine has a UHF knob below the VHF on the right.
