Hi Bruce
That cabinet is, or should I say was, a Philco 112X.
You know, I have to say, I like it...I wasn't sure if a McMurdo would fit on top of one of those (modified) Philco cabinets, but obviously it does.
A Masterpiece would look pretty classy with a setup like that...and the 15-17 looks good on there, too!
For the person who has the McMurdo Silver chassis but no speaker, this would keep you from a search for that 18 inch Super-Giant used with the MP V and VI; you couldn't use anything bigger than a 12 inch speaker in that cabinet. (The original Philco 112X speaker is a 10-1/2 inch unit.)
I think, if I hadn't found a MP VI with Clifton cabinet, that I might have considered a similar setup.
So, guys, keep this in mind next time you're in Kutztown...if you find an early Philco Inclined Sounding Board cabinet that no one wants, you could always convert it to a McMurdo Silver speaker cabinet.
