Please suggest a radio for this cabinet

Jerry it was originally a radio cabinet.  I remember it as a youngster.  Actually it was a wedding gift for my grandparents.  Then inherited by my dad and now to me.  If I can find the proper radio, I would love to put it back to the purpose it was built for.  Any ideas on where to find the proper radio for this cabinet would be very much appreciated.  I have one Philco radio to complete and a 1949 Philco to restore and then I am ready to begin this project.  I can't wait to get started.
