It looks like the screws on each side of the back in the middle are like the Grundig. Loosen them and they release a clamp. You will also probably have to remove the two on each side of the plug.

It looks like a late '50's, early '60's RCA Victor export model. Somewhere in all that faded lettering on the back should be the model number?

I have seen one or two like that. Possibly made in Europe with RCA slapped on there? Paul
