The title of the thread unintentionally leaves the wrong impression.
When I read "Unelco Model 1914 Radio," my first thought was that the
radio was from 1914. Actually, it's the model 1914 Unelco radio. I went
to rec.antiques.radio+phono,where I learned that the radio is a
transistor radio that dates from about 1970.
Like you, my first thought was not to plug the thing in and fire (ha,
ha) it up right away. See:

The first hit leads right back to RRS, but it is some seven and a half
years old.
Unelco is, in my guess, the Baltimore-based importer of these radios.
In 1970, this radio was surely made in Japan. I have a few such
Japanese multiband radios. They may not be performance champs, but I
find them a lot of fun to listen to. I have a fondness for analog
tuning. I am further certain that the schematic can be found in a Sams
Photofact. The Sams website has a search function. I'll bet the crowd
at rec.antiques.radio+phono could be helpful.
Best wishes.
