That's a rather uncommon GE. Very nice find.
I've been collecting vintage TV's for decades and many from the early post-war era have their backs missing. I read that in these early days magazine articles told TV owner to leave them off for better cooling. Once they were separated from the set, that was it.
I've made some nice backs with perforated, fairly heavy gauge steel stock using metal sheers, a dremel, and a grinding wheel. It's not east to work with, but they look very convincing if done neatly and cleanly. You can find the stock on eBay.
