Hi Bill and welcome,
I'm kinda curious about your set in that I'm unaware that particular model in that year. Could you post a pic or two of it at your convenience? There was a model 90 (several different runs and cabinet styles) around 1932 or so.
When it started smoking was it play fine? Or did the volume drop off ? There are some noninvasive trouble shooting techniques that may give us some clues as to what failed.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
