Both of the ones I've shown are aluminum, and differ in detail (rivets vs. screws for the leg mounts, embossed vs. printed letters for the instruction plates) and one (the one without the Wireless No.11 stencil) has a small 'CMC" in a circle stamp that I think is Canadian Marconi Company.

Given what you say about steel Australian ones, I probably have one Brit. and one Canadian cover. I can't imagine British and Canadian sets would be so close in almost every respect yet have a silly thing like the stud and clip for the cover reversed (a look at some pics of British sets will settle that pretty quick) so I think that may suggest a 75 year old error.
