It looks like it was maybe a British Philco model, which would explain why it has a longwave band, and a BSR changer. Those same BSR changers were very popular in Canada during the 1950s, I have a rather beat up one kicking around somewhere. I think that there is likely a procedure for reducing the speed of the changer for 60 cps power line frequencies, if you lift the platter up there is likely a sleave on the motor shaft to change the ratio.
