The "Clyde Shuler" style Philco cabinets use a quarter cut mahogany in an inverted "V" match.

First, let me say, I'm not one to take the easy way. If I were going to patch the veneer, I would make a cut parallel with the grain, just below the "sand through" and replace the veneer all the way up to the match line at the top of the arch.  If I didn't like the results, I reveneer the whole arch.
