I think a single 35W4 would be just at or possibly past maximum ratings, supplying B+ to two power amplifiers and all those other tubes. This being a stereo radio it'll need twice as much current as an ordinary radio, and the 35W4 isn't an extremely robust tube to begin with, so maybe it's reliability?
