'63 GE H220A "hang on the wall" transistor radio

Here's my latest ebay purchase, a '63 GE H220A "hang on the wall" AM transistor radio that will operate on either AC or 4 "D" batteries. The only thing wrong with the radio was a dirty volume control; which, was easily corrected with control cleaner. This radio is built using modular construction. Three solder-in modules are used (converter, IF, audio) in this radio. Since the radio performs well and since this is a low voltage device with little fear of something burning up, I'm not going to worry about replacing the capacitors at this time. I've seen a lot of GE radios; but, I don't recall ever seeing this model before.

Here's a video, showing the inside of the radio:
