Certainly early 1930's. Not sure re make.

By the size of those valves it could be a DC only model. John.

I like it! Is there a mains transformer?

Looks like between 1928 and 1932 (only based on styling no evidence).

The middle valve looks like a Pentode (AC/PEN) with side contact maybe and its hard to see but the valve on the right a looks like a UU3.

I have a few early mains sets with this style of valve.

Interesting set I am sure we will discover more once you have it in your hands

Cheers
