There are a few 7" sets of similar size, but the 641 is a 10" set.

If one of you bids, and, wins, may I purchase a good photocopy of mannual?
Or, do you have an extra original you can spare?
I have that model in Blonde Mahoganny.
They had updated set in 51' with an RCA 3 speed changer made for RCA by VM.
It's got the RCA Victor name on tone arm.
I have restored the radio, but, not the tv yet.

I believe that's a 630TS chassis in a bigger cabinet. You can download the 630TS factory service and installation manuals from this page:
