Summary:

Concord Electronics, 69 Preston St., Brighton. Previously known as Brighton Radio Co. at the same address.

The "Little Jewel" radio is assigned to J. Roberts (not related to the company Roberts Radio Co. Ltd.). That model is a single valve battery receiver sold as a kit during the 1960's.

Regular advertiser of surplus Electronics and Radios in 1950s & 1960s particularly in Practical Wireless.

History:
They appear to have used fictitious brands such as such as J. Roberts Radio similar to established names. No connection to Roberts Radio Co.

Many items sold as kits or assembled for an extra fee. Very similar range of chassis, kits and complete Radios to Gladstone Radio of Farnborough, Hants.

The "Little Jewel" apparently by "J. Roberts Radio" with a heraldic crest suggestive of the real Roberts Radio "By Appointment" logo was also marketed by them as a "made in Great Britian" "Skyroma". Perhaps Roberts complained?

This manufacturer was suggested by Keith Staines.
