Welcome to the Phorum!
I don't have any particular knowledge of 1940's clock radios but I do know that Philco had a clock timer that would turn a radio on or off in 1938. You can see my thread on the one I have at https://www.philcoradio.com/phorum/showt...?tid=13358 It was a separate unit from the radio. There is an article on a DIY "clock" radio from Popular Mechanics in 1940 found on OneTubeRadio.com.
There is just a bit of info in the Philco Gallery about your model if you have not yet seen it. https://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1942a/#Model_42-22CL
