Finding a TV's missing channel marker escutcheon is about as likely as a needle in a haystack. More likely that you'll run across someone with another complete or parts set, possibly the Meck model listed above.
Many early post WWII TVs used the same channel escutcheon as the RCA 630 family...If you can find a picture of your model set (or that chassis cabinet under a different brand) compare the tuning escutcheon to the the 630 and maybe a later RCA like a 9T246 and see if it looks the same...If it does put out a want ad for the RCA part and you should be able to find one quickly.
