Here is a complete list of Philco models using this grille, with color variations:

As you can see, several Philcos use this grille...and the majority of them used brown swirled Tenite.
The 41-221C, 41-221CI, 42-853 and 42-854 had "B'D'CST" and "S.W." embossed in the grille above the band switch knob.

The 41-226 had "P.B.", "B'D'CST" and "S.W." embossed in the grille above the band switch knob.

Decals would be an acceptable substitute, I think, and could be added by the buyers of these grilles to take care of that problem.
Looks great, Kirk!
