That's weird... wonder if other viewers are not seeing the schematic? Some of the features on this site appear to be somewhat disfunctional since AK changed their format. For example, the labels for the various function buttons at the top of the message box have disappeared, but I remembered tha the web image paste button is the 5th from the right on the bottom row and used it to paste the link. This was done using Safari browser on a iPad mini...wonder if that could be a problem?
For grins, here is a picture of a Crosley 50, linked by the same method:



does that show up?
Note the odd "open book" style (Crosley patent?) tuning capacitor rather than the more common style tuning capacitor with multiple rotating plates.

Also, I attached a photo taken yesterday with the i Pad camera of the dim light that is given off by a 199 (long pin version) when connected to a 3 Volt supply...is that visible?

edit add: Thanks Tom... here is the raw link, pasted in without using the "image" button:
