A great find Gary, well done! Telefunken had three of their own chassis, a 90 deg hybrid. a 110 deg hybrid and a solid state model. Most apparently only tuned upto UHF ch60!

As Fernseh and Nick say they collaborated with Decca, hence why they later brought out Bradfords under the Telefunken name. I don't know how long this collaboration laster.

Of course by the 1980s they became part of the J2T trio (JVC, Thorn and Telefunken). Two interesting variations of the HR7200/3V29 came out which had VHF/UHF tuners, the VR 520 and 1190 (I think it was). The two were styled identically, but different in style to the JVC & Ferguson versions. Clock display on the right for one thing.

Cheers,
