Philco 39-6 - WildDog - 05-31-2010

Ron,
1. Type of wood I'm dealing with?
2. Color of lacquer to use? Highlights?
3. Proper grill cloth pattern?
4. Any decals?
Thanks,
David Woodward

Walnut veneer.

Medium Walnut, with either Extra Dark Walnut or black lacquer on the edge and bottom trim.

See here to get the idea:

Quote:3. Proper grill cloth pattern?

I think it should have the "Ribbed" pattern (#14 from Radio Grille Cloth Headquarters).

Quote:4. Any decals?

No, since the PHILCO trademark is on the dial scale.
