I think this is just an early 50's CBS-Columbia B&W console. This was at the time CBS was trying to market their spinning wheel sequencial color system. CBS along with several other companies, Admiral comes to mind. Simply put, they added the color jack for use with a separate CBS color adaptor chassis that sat atop the set and included the color wheel. Needless to say CBS gave up their color system after they failed in marketing a fully self contained color wheel set in 1951. The system was revived briefly by NASA in the early 70's for use in the space program.
