My Colorado son sent me this picture of a console.  I think I know what model/year it is but would like other input.  Anybody have a suggestion?

It's a 46-1226. Shared a cabinet with 47-1227, but the latter set had FM also. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

Yep, it's a 46-1226! Found a picture on page 189 of Slusser's 6th edition of Collector's Guide to Antique Radios. Also found picture with phonograph showing (door ajar) on the web.
