Hi Paula,
Yes, Arvin did make a lot of Silvertones. I have a couple: model 9000 brown bakelite, and model 9001, same cabinet but painted ivory, which were 1949-52 or thereabouts, definitely made by Arvin. Both use chassis 132.857. The 132 prefix indicates Arvin as the manufacturer. Here are some other prefixes to Silvertone chassis numbers:
100 Stewart-Warner
101 Colonial
103 Emerson
107 Howard
109 Detrola
110 Air King
113 Mission Bell
126 RCA
132 Arvin
164 Freed
