I can't seem to find any information about this machine so i figured i'd come here and ask.
PS - Found the soundbox on ebay, it was listed as "very rare soundbox"
Thanks in advance!

Good day sir,it really ressembles a Thorens and I assume it must be a swiss made machine judging by the construction of it,maybe a late 30's ortophonic. The soundbox is 99% the same just like in various Thorens grams but in the same time the Liraphone and Parlophone had the same style. I hope this helped you. The key detail is the mark on the motor,Thorens is marked with an ancor or a "K".
