The cabinet appears to be greatly oversized compared to a radio cabinet and purpose-built just for this one-off application. Typical console radios of 1929-30 were on highboy or lowboy legs, not ball feet right on the floor. I'd say that there was so much equipment to be housed in this unit that a stock radio cabinet would not do, so this was built. Comparing the AC receptacle at the bottom rear of the unit with the actual size of one, and working a ratio, the unit would appear to be about 24" wide by 63" high, rather ungainly for a commercial unit and not typical of the style of the age, anyway.
