It certainly looks like a Japanese clone of the RCA CTC7 WITH a 21CYP22. Patterned after it with all tubes in the same location. This would have to be an extremely rare set because people at that time would have a hard time buying any Japanese products as they were considered cheap copies and inferior. Also having a brand name like "Hitachi" or otherwise in your living room in this country would "brand" you back then even up to the late '60's. I remember acquiring a Hitachi about that time and finally sold it. It was a 19" rectangular console and had a beautiful color picture!
