A sort-of upmarket competitor to Henry's etc. was 'Home Radio' - very
much the Waitrose end of things. I had one of their catalogues as well
(with an artistic Barbara Hepworth scuplure on the front, you'd never
get that with Henrys).
They were a rather odd company. Not that far from here, in Mitcham. Had a
counter in a newish block, with the same oldbloke always serving. Then
moved to Wimbledon, but always seemed to be closed. Then disappeared.
I still have their 'Good Companion' tranny portable which I built, bought
from my first salary, and it still works, although I don't. ;-) 55 years
old.
