Unknown Zenith

Have a large radio-phono combination. It appears to be TRF with an AC power supply. Looks like 5 stages of TRF. Chassis is gold in color with a small blue Zenith tag stating Model 40A and s/n 212333. The mechanical push-button assembly states Automatic Radio # A-18900. I am seeking schematics and any other info.

Originally purchased the unit at an ETV auction in Pgh (WQED) about 1970 and was told it was CA 1928.

Thank you Norm.

Have downloaded and printed the schematics and they appear to be correct for the radio chassis. Any ideas on the record player?
