Unbelievable find (at least for me). Need some help.

I posted a new pic of my TV after I put some effort to clean it up. I used all Howard's Products because you guys said they were good and you were right. It must at least look somewhat close to what it looked like in the old days. Thanks to user bandersen especially because he helped me with the knob and his videos on YouTube are very good, too. I also have an old radio that I will now teach myself to work on before I attempt the big guns.

As a side note, television did not come to my area until 1953. I am a historian and I asked around and it is possibly the oldest TV in original "working" condition in my state. Why would someone throw it away? Thanks again!
