I have seen it many times where they strip the radio but want to keep the original Philco decal so they strip around it..

I don't think a picture can make it look like that...
Philco rarely lacquered bare wood. Toner was used 99% of the time...

Wow. Good eyes!

Whoever did it did a fair job anywho. The logo is a decal I'm guessing?

So a spray toner over a filler sealer? Just wondering, I own a lot of antique furniture and have always wondered about such finishes. I know on one old ash table I had that it had to be planned to remove the filler/sealer or whatever it was. I tried sanding it out and gave up lol! I prefer an oil finish.
