Hi and welcome,

Best I can tell your set is from 1963 and uses a 13N50 chassis. The free service info can be found here: https://worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Ri...963-TV.pdf  starting on pg 109. As for the marks on the top, I doubt it's any sort of solid wood probably some sort of decal over particle board. Would feel it to see if the grain is raised. If it is a little light sanding and artwork to draw in the sanded/missing wood grain. I'm sure others will have other suggestions on how to on the top issue.
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.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
