Identifying old electronic instruments

Greetings,
I had a look in my local scrapyard and noticed a lot of old electronics devices in the computer shop. They all have some numbers on them and apparently came fro somewhere like a school. I took some photos for anyone interested. Unfortunately I could not buy anything because the owner in charge of the place is not there. If there is anything valuable and useful I can come here and purchase it. A signal generator would be nice to have around for example.

Basically old gear, worth very little - but if it's cheap enough, and something useful to you, then odds bits could be useful. I see there's a Grundig audio signal generator there, we used to have one at work - I didn't even bother taking it (for free) when I finished there.
I see, I guessed that would be the case but still wanted to ask.
 
There is very little there that would get me excited these days, I have just about all the test equipment that I want.

However, I remember many years ago as a teenage beginner when I had nothing.
Some of those pieces for a few pounds/dollars/euros would have made me very happy.
