1959/60 Brazilian Pioneer set

Picked this up last Sunday on the garage of the transportation company. Bought it many months ago, but only now I was able to hire a company to transport it for me ( it was in another state, really far from where I am ). This brand Pioneer was a national brand, their sets had the distinctive characteristic of having a built-in voltage stabilizer ( see picture of the panel ). This set must be from the late 50's I have never seen a Pioneer set this old before, I had only seen the 1964 model.

Back cover is no longer the original one and I have no clue to what the original looked like. They broke the plastic cup during transportation, fortunately the CRT was not necked. The TV was kind of canibalized, there's no sign of the loudspeaker. But I am really pleased, it is a pretty rare set and I find it quite good looking.
