Conrac-Fleetwood!

Charles

It looks like a DeForest cabinet, with another chassis installed. The CRT mask doesn't look finished with all those holes exposed.
BTW, were there many DeForest sets sold in Chicago?
They sold them in Milwaukee for a while.
They made a Muntz look like a TOTL Zenith! :D

Those holes were for mounting the mask & glass. The Fleetwood was sold as a bare chassis; with a separate tuner unit with all the controls. Many were built-ins, and the tuner box could be in a radio-sized cabinet across the room on a table, or built into the wall, or anyplace. That looks like a custom cabinet, and somebody didn't do something correctly when putting the mask in. Tuner box may be under that lid ontop.

Here's one ad for it I found, and you could mount the chassis any position, as the CRT mount was made to use on the chassis or on the cabinet.
