Thanks to Sam I found this really neat tester... She is a little worse for wear but she is complete minus the cables.
This little beast is a 4 tuber! That surprised me....
I will have to blast the cabinet and touch up the face paint for looks.
I think the missing tube is a 7Y4? The dial glass is gone also... 
I found this article online but no schematic...

If anyone has the probes for this I would like to buy a set.

Here is what she looks like.
