As to replacing the selenium, some guidance, first from International Rectifier, as found on the back of their 1965 "Universal Silicon Replacement Rectifier" rated 600V at 1 Ampere.

The second photo is guidance from Sarkes Tarzian, a maker of both Selenium Rectifiers and later, Silicon replacements. This was an enclosure with their M150 "Silicon TV Replacement Rectifier" from the late 60s. It is only rated at 360V, 150mA, obviously aimed at Black and White sets, but it too recommends adding a dropping resistor.

Others here have some great advice as well.
