Hi Dan
That's a Philco model 19 chassis. Obviously, since the speaker is a 10-1/2 incher, it came from a console originally.
I'm guessing it is a USA model 19, and not a Canadian 319. The Canadian 319 would have a metal tag riveted on the back which would be stamped with the "chassis type" (model number). Plus, the 319 would be more likely to have a thicker, 25 cycle power transformer. The USA Philco sets of this time period had a gold sticker on the back of the chassis that often comes off over time.
You can see the various cabinets Model 19 was offered in (in the USA, that is) here:

Steve Davis can make a reproduction cathedral cabinet for you, but you'll have to find an 8 inch speaker to go in it:
