Larry,
Yes your pics does "muddy the waters" as they show a 6 tube chassis with the 53AS tag on a 8 tube chassis? I suspect that in 1942, war shortages, they had a 53 console but no 6 tube chassis left over so they stuck an eight tube 54 or 56 chassis in the console but still added the 53 metal ID tag and sold it as the 53AS. You may be able to identify your correct chassis model by comparing the tubes used with the eight tube schematics! Icon_idea
