The model I have is actually a Tombstone Set which is labeled on a metal label in back as model 86U. it is actually 16 1/2 inches tall by 14 inches wide & 9 3/8 inches deep. it has all the correct info listed but does not include the 6 push button station selectors. Also the phonograph hookup is by means of a slide switch & a connector on the back of the the set.
I will be uploading pictures of my set soon
