  • This is the model 414N Chippendale.
    "Radio & TV Retailing", January 1947 for the N chassis of series 400: "With 18.5 watts undistorted output. Changer handles up to 20 discs, 10" and 12" intermixed, plays both sides continously. Radio with 17 tubes. Separate amlifier unit has another 8 tubes. Auditorium type 15" low frequency speaker plus one horn type speaker for treble. Capehart units start at $ 965. We count 26 tubes! According to Rider's, the N-400-Series have the same technique but different cabinets, 406N Adam, 413N Chippendale and 414 Chippendale. There are also Series 100N-chassis as simpler versions. See here the "Common information for the Capehart model pages for the 1930s and 1940s" and for the information about Series 400 here.

    The Capehart model series 400 with Chippendale cabinet were made in five cabinet versions: The first models were called Chippendale 400 for 1931/32, followed by 400A (1932/33) and 400B (1933/34).
    Model Chippendale 405 followed as Chippendale 405C in 1934/35, 405D, 405E, 405F and 405G (1938/39).
    Then it changed style again and got model number 410G Chippendale, 410H, 410K and 410M. After the war the models had the changer 41-E instead of 16-E: 413N Chippendale followed with a parallel 414N Chippendale, both for 1946-1948), followed by 413P-Chippendale and 414P for 1948/49 as the last production.
