Just wondering if anyone could give me any info on this radio. I can not find any Brand name, or model number on or in the radio. This is the radio that my mother grew up listening to. I assume it is from the late 40's or 50's.

Hope the picture isn't too large, and I know it's not the best picture just a quick one taken on my phone. Any help would be great. I would like to clean it up and find the right knobs for it so she can display it. The radio is in very good shape, no cracks or anything just needs a good cleaning. Not sure if it still works. My mom was about to plug it up but I stopped her, because I didn't want to mess something up.
