Hi and welcome back,
>Well, I'm going to take a deep breath and attempt to pull that dial face without breaking it.
Remove the screws along it's edges (4 I think) and lift the escutcheon off. Don't drop it...
If you are going to clean the dial use only mineral spirits as any soaps or water will remove the print. Clean gently.
The light sockets are hard to tell the condition by looking. Try pushing the bulb in like you are going to remove it. Most of the time they won't budge as the rubber inside has turned cenment.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
