Ed has given you good advice, and you should follow it. If your entire cabinet is dark, it is only due to age and dirt; the original coloring of this version of Model 60 looks much like the photo Ed posted above.
For very dark areas of a Philco cabinet, the difference between Extra Dark Walnut and Van Dyke Brown is that Extra Dark Walnut has more of a reddish tint, while Van Dyke Brown has a greenish tint under bright lighting. Some refinishers, myself included, prefer Extra Dark Walnut for that reason.
