Since Bradford is the 'brand' sold by Grants, it is a "badged" machine so many other names could be on the basic same machine. Also there are probably many different machines with the same name that are not anything like your machine. One place I have looked for Japanese badged machines are

Vintage Japanese 'Badged' sewing machine with fancy stitches
Vintage Japanese 'Badged' Zig Zag and Straight Sew Sewing Machines

A photo of the whole machine from the front is what is needed. That way you might be able identify a twin machine with a different "badge" on it. I haven't read this whole conversation in detail, but often a sewing machine would be sold at Western Auto (as an example) as a "xyz" and the same machine might have been sold at Woolworths as a "def" machine and yet sold again as a "jkl" at Macy's. I had a machine that I was able to determine at was sold under 5 different names.
