Thanks Bob, it is a mess isn't it? lol
Dave, I assume you're looking at the numbers '016' on the label? I guess that means 16th week of 1960, so it probably is a replacement. What makes you think the original was an RCA? The other Sears set I got from the same house is just like this one, all original and untouched (CRT replacement aside). The owner was very proud of his Sears brand items, and probably had service agreements on all of it.
Next task will be carefully replacing the CRT base with a new one, don't suppose anyone has a spare Silvetone base for me? That's gotta be a rare item, if it even exists. Probably just put a generic one on there, anyone got one with no markings that could be donated to the cause? I'll look for a brightener at the museum, but don't know if they have one.
