It definitely is an RCA chassis design. It looks like it uses a small VHF knob with a thin lighted window above it for display of tuned channel, and it looks like they may have fitted the place for the UHF tuner with one of those "UHF ready" badges to cover the hole for the unpopulated knob shaft.
Do you think it was a color set? Also, how new would this set have been in 1962? How much would it have run?

Also, what is a UHF tuner, and what was a UHF ready badge? What did it do?

My grandparents' two earlier TVs. First pic circa '54, second late 50s:
