I don't have much experience in these compact cabinet radios; would a radio of this era usually have heat abatement?

Maybe. You could buy asbestos sheet in hardware stores back then though, and this looks to me like someone felt the radio getting hot and decided to stick a sheet in there. The sloppy uneven installation and rough edge gives me that idea. The rough edge also looks capable of spreading asbestos into the room. Maybe leave this one until masks are once again available
