An odd small Canadian Westinhouse radio

I just spruced this one up. It's a Canadian Westinghouse 5-tube model 555 likely early post-war (?). It's wood covered in Tolex (originally tweed, now straw yellow), brown/yellow swirled catalin handle, brown bakelite knobs, and brown painted thick wood side panels. The chassis is mounted vertically.
If you look up model 555's the most common is a bakelite tabletop. There seems to be a line of 555 models all with the same chassis and a letter designation. I cannot find another of this particular example. Anyone info would be greatly appreciated.
