I would guess that it is a 2264 White Zephyr. Although the one pictured on this site does not exactly match your descritpion, details changed from run to run. The 2264n has the block inlays you described. Both of the models pictured have the open book design but not the diamond. In the 70's Electra headstocks changed, evolving into the wave shape.

Pics would be nice.

How do you like it?
