Heard a Hegeman preamp back in the late 70's (or so it seems). I don't think it used an ic like the one in your photos, I believe it was discrete. Later I read that Peter Aczel liked it a lot. I think he was a friend of Stu Hegeman. Hegeman designs were always on the unique side, but good sounding. Finding a ps for the unit will be super hard to do, but probably worth the effort...
Good listening.
