That being said I would not turn down either one if they were offered to me at a reasonable price, as yet I do not own a Philco console with an inclined speaker board.
I don't know if Canadian Philco offered models in those types of cabinets, I have seen highboy and lowboy models from then of course, and chairsides. I haven't seen a Canadian Philco with a fully skirted cabinet older then 1934-35, and it was a 16X. Philco of Canada used to contract out their cabinet construction to outside firms so they may not have offered the full range given the smaller market and different tastes.
