New Reproduction Philco Cabinets Available
#5

I'd say the cabinet on the left is the reproduction. It's very good. It seems as though the cutouts just above the escutcheon are not quite the same as the original. The curves are not quite deep enough and the peak of the wood extends too far above the escutcheon. I have to say though I had to run upstairs and look at my 16B to be sure. Whoever is doing this is very skilled. The grain on the veneer looks just like my 91, especially on the front face.
