The speakers in that Lloyd's are better than most of those 60's Japanese sets, plus an earphone jack and shortwave as a bonusand the tubes are Toshiba, but may be not indicative of the original manufacturer.

I had the same Commodore "stereo-matic" also, given by my 4th grade teacher as a bribe to stop "doodling on my tablet" and listen up. The tubes were labeled "Ten" which is Fujitsu. It had four 4 inch round speakers, sounding decent but the FM selectivity was awful.
