One of the earliest mass produced rectangular sets on the market.
I don't think so... the chassis on that set made use of the entire cabinet, including the speaker area at the bottom... I doubt if it could have been shortened to the size of a "normal looking" table model. I'm guessing that the set was something like the 19" RCA (CTC-19) or similar US-made model. I am not surprised to see a mix of roundies and rectangular "25 inch" and "19 inch" models on the showroom floor, likely the pix is from the mid 60s when the transition from roundies to rectangular sets was occuring.
