Are you sure this is a General Electric radio? I went through "Pre-War Consoles," by Mark V. Stine, that has photos of most consoles. I couldn't find a G.E. or G.E. Canada model that matched your cabinet's style.

From the looks of things, it seems that the importer replaced the U.S. power transformer for your 50-Hz power. Or maybe the importer bought U.S. radios without a power transformer, and then installed one for your electric power.

Hi Klaas

Nice looking radio. Can you find a model number? Schematics for GE can be found by clicking on "Resources" above but require a model number.
