Need help with OLD Motorola TV set

I am looking for schematics, service manuals, or any advice you have
concerning a Motorola model VT71MB-A television set.  The date on the
chassis is April 12, 1949.  The receiver seems functional since there
is clear audio.  The video, however, is dead.  No raster, no high pitched noise
from the flyback, no nothing.  I haven't tested the tubes yet, but will
soon.  At least one appears to have leaked.  I hope most of them are OK (have
you priced tubes lately?)

Any help or pointers to help will be much appreciated!  Please email responses
if possible since this is posted to a number of newsgroups.
