GOSH!!! 
NICE find. All globe tubes, too! Cabinet looks to be in excellent condition, just dirty.
The early AK sets in the metal cabinet are usually playable, assuming the tubes are verified good. Recommend you bring it up slowly on a variac in order to give the electrolytic caps a decent chance to re-form.
In fact, leaving it at 60V for 30 min or more, then 75V for 30 min, then 100V for 30 min, then apply full house current.
