The crt is a General electric so I believe it to be a replacement. It is a 5tp4 that tested SUPER strong! the cabinet is fair but the important screen is nice. I am not sure but I think it may have come from a bar or club. The reason I am saying this is because there is a really long cord with a box that has a couple of controls on it. Maybe early Type remote?

If someone could look up the Sam's for this set I will be grateful!

The "remote control" is for brightness and contrast. The HV regulation is not very good on these sets, so in 1949 they added the remote so you could adjust when the picture went out of focus due to a bright/high contrast scene.

The 8PCS41 (1948) and 9PC41 are the most common projection sets found, not rare and sorry to say not that valuable.

The most important part of the optical system is the spherical mirror located in the optic barrel.
