Mains and Battery Valve Sets in my collection. Some are waiting to be worked on, or are waiting parts.

From 1950 the HMV 1121 has an unusual tuning scale. Four louvered strips of glass (One for each of the wavebands covered) with the loudspeaker mounted behind. Valve line up X78 W77 DH77 KT61 U10. The case is in excellent condition however the tuning mechanism is jammed.
