Thanks for the info and suggestions!

Below are three more images - clearer pictures of the front and back of the transformer and a picture of the circuitry directly below the transformer.

I tested continuity on the primary and various secondaries and it was as expected based on the labeling - had continuity between the 110V and 0V on the primary, and in the expected places on the secondaries both front and back.

Some questions...

To test the voltages, I need some sort of load correct? Would something like a 50 watt incandescent bulb do the trick?

I assume the smaller tubes are rectifiers? Do you know what designation would fit the bill?
