Arran is correct, Philco used a cheep veneer on the wrap-around, toned dark to look like Walnut. It fooled a lot of people LOL.

This is a cabinet that I did a restoration on a few years ago that had been striped and stained. It had what appeared to be rotary cut Fir.

I use Walnut veneer on my reproduction cabinets.
