Lyric Mohawk Grandfather Clock Radio

Alright, so I finally suckered into buying this Grandfather Clock Radio. The clock movement seems to turn freely, but I can't set the time. It's filthy anyways and could use a good cleaning. Almost all of the tubes tested good, just with the rect. testing poorly.
Does anyone know what brand of tubes Mohawk used? There's a plethora of brands in this one though I'm just assuming RCA since that seems to be the standard for the time.
Also, can anyone point me to any similar knobs? I've found a few pics on the internet of originals as mine are not original.

Overall this radio looks like a very straightforward restoration, though I can't tend to it fully until I finish some other projects first.
