Yes, and apparently with some markings. I'm not too bothered, as these look just as old as the radio itself, and it takes an expert to know the difference.

The radio itself is pending restoration, but it plays very strong as it is.

Thanks for the link Soren.

I hope you are realizing that it is very dangerous to post here such a links.

With post stamps it could open completely new horizon for few guys here, which are trying to get of the beovirus since long time Whisper

Please be careful Big Smile

Really nice Beolit 41 Mika! Does it have FM band?

It match the Dirigent / Bandmaster on this String shelf very well.

Nope - FM transmissions didn't start in Europe until after the war. I believe Germany was the first in 1948, and as the name implies, this radio is from 1941.

BTW, I found a full set of these B&O "stamps" available here, along with other similar stamps:
