One of the tubes is branded TeleTone, so I'll guess that.

Bingo! Looks like a match! :

I've had a few chances to pick one of these up, but each time the condition wasn't so hot. On the other hand, they did have cabinets

That's a tv-149 chassis, 1948 or 49 from teletone. Finished rebuilding one of these a month back and the cabinet is always sort of roughed up. From what I read, this was a cheap tv back in the day compared to the philcos and zeniths

Looks like a good buy, definately a 7JP4 CRT. If someone has good cabinet, it will make a good chassis for a lucky member to restore!

National TV-7W also has the CRT in the middle:

Looks like my Firestone 13g3 it used teltone clone and cabinet. Only difference is it doesn't have accents over the speaker it also has that fancy cardsrock around the speaker
