It looks like a 1966 19" GE portable. IIRC, the thumbwheel knobs were for brightness, contrast and vert hold.
Ours had the VHF tuner on the top and the UHF tuner, where your VHF tuner is located.
Ours had mostly compactron tubes and series string, low B+ hot chassis.
Reliable, good performing sets. They even made a hospital model, with a big isolation transformer and grounding line cord.
