I have one of these that my friend found set near a dumpster! Replaced the selenium, all paper caps and electrolytics and it works great. I put 2 neon bulbs mounted on a terminal strip with series resistors behind the dial for a dial lamp. I would recommend removing that black cap across the rectifier...I had one of these type explode in a GE radio years ago so now I don't even try radios without replacing paper caps and electrolytics.
