Electric turntable ID??

Does anyone recognise this turntable?

It is dated 15 April 1949.

This is the on/off switch. You press either 10 or 12, the motor starts, and the tonearm stops at the record size selected.
There are no other markings or names anywhere on it. It may be an Australian made model, but I dont really know.
Any idea's?

It looks similar to a Collaro unit. I'm surprised there are no markings.

- Usually the Collaro logo was on the tonearm. But sometimes a manufacturer using a name-brand turntable substitutes its own tonearm.

- It's also possible the brand sticker came off. Or it might be a clone.
