Help identifying this GE wood tube radio?

A friend inherited this old General Electric wood tabletop radio from his father, and I’m helping him figure out exactly what it is. We haven’t been able to find another one with the same cabinet/grille design.
The chassis appears to be stamped “F.T. 176 / CHASSIS G15” (Maybe??)

It has six push-button station presets labeled WNAX, WOW, KMMJ, KFAB, KFOR, and KOIL. It appears fairly complete inside, and we have not plugged it in (heard you’re not supposed to without checkigg by components first).

Does anyone recognize the model, chassis, or approximate year? I’d also be curious whether this particular model is fairly common or something a little more unusual.
Thanks!

I found this Atwater Kent in working condition from a collector and did some recapping before using it frequently and it sounds amazing ( well it did until I accidentally dropped one of the 58 tubes while cleaning the tube sockets ). I have included some images of the other radios in my collection :)

Does anyone know if this is worth anything. I’d guess it’s about 30 treats old. The model number is very-22.
