Fred, I have one of these models and I can honestly say you did such a quality job in your work, it took me a couple moments to notice that something was different. Icon_biggrin (Okay, I spotted the relocation of the Philco decal, but only because my cabinet is sunburned and there's a ghost of where it should be. ;) )

It isn't factory, but it COULD have been. I like your re-imagining of the lacquer toning... in fact I've wondered for years why Philco did the pattern but then didn't take advantage of it.
