Couldn't find any reliable pictures of this set so I went with what I thought it looking like while I was removing all the old gunk that was on it. Best I could tell all the trim was dark with some highlights. Top and sides were medium walnut. Today it was ready for toning. Finished up gluing, striping, and sealing. Made the replacement grille bars but still need to tone and notch them to fit the cabinet.
