Found this in a little antique shop a few weeks ago



Inside it was empty apart from two of these lying in the bottom



Anyone care to hazard a guess as to what a Gecophone was, and what the valves are?

Did you try Google ?

Does it say BBC on the valve ?

Blimey,is he? He's had a hard life!

Gec battery valves probably 1920's
There should be a number somewhere and if that's is a BBC logo they are early 20's

Wow... really early !

Definitely said BBC, and Marconi. Hard to make out anything else in the short time I was in there but in the right light there was a bit more script which could probably be decifered.
