This is a pretty decent looking Silvertone 1457 for the price. Hopefully the pickups both work - that switch is definitely shot - that's how they break, the throw arm seperates from the switch - I had the same problem on mine and found a cheap Chinese Replacement at Radio Shack that works just fine. Note that those are ON-OFF-ON SPDT swtiches - so the standard Gibson type pickup switches do not work.

- Silvertone 1457 In Seattle - Rebuilt For $200
Sounds like this 1457 was prbably a basket case - repaired headstock and non-original lipstick pickups by GFS - but you still get a "mostly vintage" 1963 Dano for only $200. At least this one has the real SIlvertone "hatchet" headstock not the new reissue...
