I just noticed that this radio is missing the outer, annular, knobs that should 
be around the inner knobs. It is possible that the Essen did not use the outer 
knobs, but that would surprise me. These center knobs also don't look right 
to me, but perhaps they are correct for the type 34.

The correct inner and outer knobs are shown on this radio. Knob color varied 
somewhat with the year, to match the car, but the outer knobs were the 
same for most of the 60s, at least all the ones I have seen.
