If you flip through the Sam's you will find a LOT of small Japanese made sets (many wearing American brand names) as far back as 1965, and still some earlier than that.
The japs were trying for conquest of the transistor radio market in the 50's and where about there by the mid 60's, the small/portable monochrome TV market they conquered much faster....Entering in the early 60's and forcing all but 2-3 major brands out of some screen sizes by about '68.
EDIT: I, and I'm sure others here, have some 60's jap knobs. If you can locate a decent picture of the same model and it's knobs you may be able to get replacements from the community.
