No model number here, and none found or given on other pages on the Web about this set. One thing all the pages agree on is that this set was made in South Korea, and most give a manufacture date of c.1965. Well, for a 1965 radio made in South Korea, you have to admit that this one looks quite nice.
On his Flickr page, collector Joe Haupt shares an advertisement for the Nobility, shown below, dated November 1965
