Philco 20 cathedral speaker cloth - SteveG - 04-26-2016

If I'm not able to find a decent original speaker cloth for the Philco Model 20 cathedral I bought I'll need to buy a new piece. Who has the closest to the original? Thanks, for any help!

RE: Philco 20 cathedral speaker cloth - SteveG - 04-27-2016

So far no leads on an original cloth. Any feedback on who has the best repro cloth?????

Used to be Daze. Not sure if anyone makes that pattern now.

I don't know if this will help, but this person has a selection available :

Thanks guys, for the tips. I was hoping that someone would know the closest pattern, since an exact copy doesn't seem to be available.

RE: Philco 20 cathedral speaker cloth - morzh - 04-28-2016

Pattern #20 by Daze, wasn't it? I bought it once.

When Radio Grille Cloth Headquarters was still in business, it was pattern #52. No longer available. Icon_sad

So, is there anything that's closest? I don't have the radio yet, so maybe it'll be self explanatory, once it's here.

Hi guys!
You might email Mark Palmquist, the "Dialcover" guy. He had been bringing several styles of repo cloth to the radio meets. 
Go to dialcover dot com for contact info.

Mark is usually at Kutztown meetings every time.

RE: Philco 20 cathedral speaker cloth - Ron Ramirez - 05-01-2016

It's Mark's buddy Sam Mashburn that has the cloth. They are at the same booth at K-town, I do not remember which number but it's in the main pavilion not far from the north end.

Of course, that doesn't help SteveG since he is in California and, I assume, won't be there unless he flies.

Tell ya what. I will try to remember to look and see if Sam Mashburn has any suitable cloth. Icon_thumbup

Gary & Mike,
Thanks for the leads.

Ron,
I certainly appreciate that! I would take a large piece, so that I have extra.

I'd love to go KT, but for what it costs to be standing there, wondering how I would ship all my finds home, I'm better off buying off of CL and eBay.

Since it appears that the recommended replacement grill cloth for the Philco 20 is no longer available does anyone have a preferred substitution?
