Hello, Carly: I believe that you have a 40-195 model. Like Arran said, it's not a particularly rare set, but it looks to be in nice shape and a worthy restoration candidate.

You can find many of the parts that you would need from many of the vendors listed in this site. Including suitable repop grillecloth.

I do not recommend that you attempt to turn this set on. Best to have someone take a look at it and make any necessary repairs to make it electronically sound.

In working order and with a good antenna you should be able to get great reception with this set. It has 2 shortwave bands, so you should be able to pull in many foreign broadcasts.

Good luck and I hope you enjoy your nice set.
