Probably rare but not what I would call valuable, few TV's
are truly valuable. DEFFINATELY keep it intact & pass it to a collector

I've worked on several of that model. It was a hot chassis, voltage doubler design using a heater transformer, for the parallel heaters. It had keyed AGC and three stages of IF. The horizontal output was a 6CD6, to drive the large CRT.
The biggest problem was the Sarkes-Tarzian tuner, where the tube sockets, would just crumble.
