That's a classic example of a re-cabinet set. Looks like an RCA KCS-28 to me. (Re-cabineting was a process done in the early 50s whereby smalltime companies would buy 10" TVs from dealers where they were traded in, and they'd modify the chassis and put in a new cabinet with a larger tube, and sell retail for a little less than a "brand-new" larger TV).
