Yes, Keith -
Philco made and sold that in 1932. It is a Model R-3 extension speaker, made to use with your Philco radio in a separate room or as an extra speaker in the same room as the radio. It had its own volume control. (At least I think it was a volume control. I used to own one several years ago, but don't really remember much about it now.) And, yes, it originally had a very long cord. The only other part inside is a permanent magnet speaker. Small but heavy because of the early PM speaker used.
