If you're lucky the TV folder tells you which folder the changer mech is in.
I did finally get the folder for this TV in the mail the other day and it did tell which folder the record changer was in, and fortunately the folder it was in, was one I already had, so I have both Sam's folders for this unit.

By the looks of the fact that this unit still has all of the original components in it yet (none of the original capacitors were swapped out, or resistors) and the TV has almost all of the original Philco branded tubes in it yet including the original Philco branded picture tube, I'm going to wager a guess that this TV is a low hours set, or was relagated to bedroom or familyroom duty when the people who originally owned this set got a better TV, or got a Color TV when it became available.
