Not late, I'm referring to the 14 inch CRTs from the early 50s such as the 14CP4 and several others like it, that had very flat sides and square corners. Here is a Philco brochure showing some early 14 inch sets likely with split chassis. My '51 16 inch "roundie" (1634-M) is split chassis, so I am assuming the same chassis was used for the '51 14 inch sets as well.

In the 14" model, the RF chassis was probably the same, but the sweep chassis was slightly different. It had three 5Y3's in the front corner.
I didn't think there was that many of that model around.
