EICO?!
Caramba!
I mean, I love the stuff, but most of it is... homely. Sounds great, though.
Sherwood's cosmetics were certainly... idiosyncratic, too :-)
Now, HH Scott. HH Scott made some beautiful stuff; my favorites are probably the round-dial tuners and receivers of the early 1960s. I don't have any photos of those handy, so this'll have to do.
Oh. Fisher should also get an honorable mention, too. Not much says "Swingin' 60s" to me like a 400, 500C, or 800C. Another timeless suite of designs.
all the best,
mrh
