You gotta quit hanging around over there
Best guess is that it's a CA model or a homemade cab.
As for the model it doesn't matter much all of those
Transitones are pretty much the same, exception
being the Philco /Simplex model(s).

...actually many of the Simplex/Philco Transitones are the same.
That is not a factory Philco cabinet. Simplex? No idea but I doubt it.
Could be a third party cabinet, or even an exceptionally well done homemade cabinet. Maybe this was originally in a Bakelite cabinet and the original owner broke the original cabinet and did this (or had it done)?

It resembled the late 30's philco grills so I thought there might be a chance at it being correct.

The Simplex I was thinking of is a trf set.

Poor cabinet. Doesn't look anything like Al Franken. You should be ashamed! Really, the cabinet is reminiscent of a Sparton. Joe

Are there any pictures of the back? I thought that I might ask as there are some Canadian Philcos that have different cabinets from the U.S models. The only other thing I can think of is that it might be a cabinet for a Motorola or some other brand that has a similar knob and dial layout.

The dial and knob spacing looks like the chassis could be a 39-652, PT-33, PT-25, PT-61, or a PT-39. The cabinet could be as Arran says, a Canadian version...?
