The power supplies I'm thinking of are the old school heavy-iron types. The inside will have a big transformer, a fairly-big paper-in-oil capacitor wired directly to one transformer winding, a rectifier and an electrolytic filter capacitor, typically the size of a Foster's Lager can. No fancy circuit board with chips, transistors and such.

If this one has a circuit board full of fiddly stuff, it's newer then the type I'm thinking of.
