I think it's a WW 2 military 7B. I've got one that is very similar. GPO 
models usually had a 160 V dc motor. This one has a 24 V dc one. It also 
takes sprocket feed paper whereas (AFAIK) GPO machines used friction feed.

The one I have is transportable with a fold down grey steel table and 
box shaped silence cover. I'd be surprised if the one pictured had the 
table and covers.

It will be my first retirement project to get mine running and on the 
air. It has been stored indoors since I bought it about 45 years ago so 
should not be too much of a problem.

Best 73
