Levi;
What you describe sounds like a Brand Z model from the 1940s, if it only had one band then it was probably a five or six tube model. I don't generally care for that site but looking through Radiomuseum may help, Or you could post about this on the ARF, there are more of the Brand Z enthusiasts on there who might know it by your description. Do you remember if the cabinet may have had a faux wood grain on it, many of the lower end consoles did in that era?
Regards
Arran
