...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)?
