[Amps] Transformer guess?

I have a small power transformer here, Philco 45-7011-7, which I would like to use for a
screen supply. It has the usual center tapped HV winding, which measures 380-0-380v, just
right, as well as 5v and 6v filament windings.
What I want to know is how much DC I can draw from the HV winding with a full-wave CT
circuit. Googling the number reveals a similar, but smaller transformer rated at
350-0-350v at 40 mA, the 45-7011-1. This one is bigger so I am hoping it will be capable
of more current.
The transformer weighs 3 pounds 10 ounces (1.63 kg). The lamination stack measures 3-3/8"
x 2-7/8" x 1-1/2" (8.57cm x 7.3cm x 3.8cm).
Can one of the transformer gurus hazard a guess as to the current capability? I'm hoping
for 75 mA.
