It looks like an 'early' motor.

Can anyone identify it I wonder ?

I think that the make or trade name was something like Omega - some motors have this in the casting. I try find one for comparison.

Very good.

I must admit that I find gramophone motors interesting in them-selves.

Thanks Sidewinder.
