I can't say what that is but its the right age. I had the easiest time getting mid-50's sets working again because they may have originally been stored away because something simple quit, then they went shopping, possibly for a new C O L O R tv

Like above, replacing electros first will get the set powered up and it would then show other issues, if any exist, before the paper caps begin to fail after a bit of operation.
At least with paper caps, they usually just keep things from working right rather than frying other stuff
