Cabinet looks Philco 118H to me and the tube shields and chassis have Zenith like coloration.

Nice find.

Wells Gardner and Brand Z were both based in Chicago, so it isn't too surprising that one would influence the other, or that they might share parts suppliers, if for no other reason then the employees of one company might go off an work for the other. If you look at Brand Z and Motorola TV chassis from the 1960s, you would swear that they came out of the same factory.
