Measures about 4.5" high x 5.25" deep x 6.25" wide... uses 1R5, 1T4, 1S5, 3S4 and a 117Z3 rectifier when plugged in. Amazingly compact set for the time.

Update...further research shows:
Model A-1 was built in early 40s, Model 5A5 in 1946 (45?)... so it can't be a 5A5
It's probably a model 3A5, which is simular to a 5A5, but uses a 117Z6. It's in Riders 13 and listed as pre-March 1942.
