Nice shape on the outside!
Looks like the one in the Cleaver's living room ("Leave it to Beaver" show)
General Electric was a sponsor of that show, and all of June Cleaver's appliances were "GE".
However, age takes its toll on things, and a similar GE console I had in the shop a few months ago needed a typical restoration - the customer was thrilled to hear it play again - it was his father's old console.
Of course the record changer was all gummed up, but once serviced, ran like a clock.
The tube amp/radio portion always needs to be serviced.
Invest in the aformentioned service and it'll sing for decades more.
The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.
