The radio's about 55 yo. It's probably plasticizer leaching from the insulation. That nastyness can be cleaned up with a solvent like brake cleaner.
Is the clock running? If not, it's probably grease hardened up in the rotor, the copper colored part in the clock assembly.
Look up "Telechron" on the internet.
