I just got through giving this set a complete cabinet restoration. I've wanted one since I was a kid. These were west coast radios, are fairly rare, and were likely a childs radio or, as advertising described it, "perfect for the apartment". You'll find at least 4 variants of this model. This one does not come with the logging card draw. It's a great performer with it's 5 tubes and is a very charming little set.

Well, I'M in fairly Serious Lust...

I've gone through that for over 40 years for this one! LOL
I saw it on a Little Rascals episode when I was very young and thought it was the coolest looking thing. It kicked off my interest in this hobby. I always chickened out at the few chances I had to acquire one because of the high price. This one was reasonable because it needed restoration and a few parts.

Beautiful work!

Thank you. I was always intimidated with the idea of a complete cabinet restoration, but this gave me confidence. The main thing is to have a lot of patience and don't even be concerned about the finishing it. Just take it one slow step at a time.

looks nice, very good job.

Jackson Bell originated the "tombstone" case. This radio is a classic in every sense of the word. The price is worth it!

Yes, you can see the kind of melding of the cathedral and tombstones shapes on this one. I love how they made the panels overlap at the top, like a little doll house. It truly can be a called a "cute" radio. It's pure eye candy. I'm still marveling at it. I paid a reasonable price for this one, but had to do a lot of work to get it to this point. Looking back, it was fun and a learning experience - and it's the way I want it rather than someone else's slant.

Does this set have a power transformer or is it a "curtain burner" transformerless model?

Definitely power transformer.

Yes. It's has a deep hefty 5 tube chassis and performers well. The mini Peter Pan cathedral is a 4-tuber, but I believe they have a PT too.
I have one pic of the back (you can see the PT behind the 2 right side tubes):
