I'm not certain but I think that the Philco 96 in the picture may have been refinished already, I seem to remember that my model 96 had some shading or fogging around the edges of the front panels and that the sides of the cabinet were an extra dark walnut. I took some pictures of the cabinet before I stripped it, I don't know how to post here but I could email them, the cabinet was beat up and the finish rather weathered but it still gives some hint of the different contrasts in shade.
Best Regards
Arran
