Looks like a 60s model. I believe Philco used Voice of Music changers in the consoles. You probably have to take a closer look at the cartridge to match a needle. Quite often the original cartridge has been replaced.

Hi and welcome,
There's a possibility that the radio and the phono where sold as separate units. In this case the model number would be on found on each component.
As for the needle/cartridge I'd give these guys a try:

That is very nice... Something I am more familiar with have a similar VM unit my first wife just had to have..
Early American or Colonial design, I never cared for the Spanish or Mediterranean designs... He, he, the V-M worked right up to the day she hauled it away during the divorce
BTW it was Solid-State, went through at least 6 needles and one ceramic cart. My favorite album was "Switched on Bach" at near full volume, she hated it...
