The house of a recently deceased neighbor is being cleaned out and this kinda tired 16B was headed for the dumpster. I thought
I'd see what I could do with it and, with the amount of labor involved, I might as well do it right- so here's my question: What
color were the dark parts of the cabinet, black or very dark brown? Was the finish meant to be opaque or was the grain meant
to show through? The cabinet was stripped long before I got it.
One idle curiosity question too. I'm not used to seeing eight-sided knobs on Philco products. How long were they used and did
the whole product line get them or just some models?
Sorry for asking questions you guys probably settled long ago.
