Ritchie, you've got a nice collection there. You got a nice deal on that Zenith (Most 50's tvs are worth about 50 bucks max) and it looks like a relatively easy one to work on. That being said, just diving into one of these can be a nightmare for a beginner. I would practice on repairing the Admiral first-it is the same concept-replace the capacitors, power it up, and trouble shoot from there. The Admiral's service info is probably online for free though Nostalgia Air.

You are lucky in that all of the basic systems on that Zenith are working. With a bit of luck, a simple recap will bring it back to life.
