Yes, the 1957 "E" line portables were called Transitone. They were available in a 14 inch and 17 inch version. The chassis were quite different. I have both versions. They were continued over for first half '58 "F" line, with some improvements. The rotating handle-antenna is the most noticeable. Philco did not offer a 14" after 58.
Transitone was originally a car radio manufacturer in Philadelphia that was bought out by Philco. Philco continued to use the Transitone name on some low end home electronics products and auto radios into the 50s.
