Lar,
After looking at your chassis again it is an eight tube unit and not 7 as I originally thought.
Could it actually be a model 54AX or 56AX chassis as these are listed as 8 tube AC consoles? Maybe the entire chassis was changed out? If the # 48 pentodes are correct they were probably used due to a shortage of other types during WWII....30VDC filaments!
