Green? Maybe the cloth has changed color over the decades? Most cloths I've seen are gold. If it's metallic thread woven in there, it could conceivably tarnish and look green. I used cloth pattern #14 from Radio Daze as a replacement. Not a perfect match, but it does have a gold color to it. If you look at the 45C in the Philco Gallery, look for the one submitted by me. That will give you an idea how it looks.

You might also consider the Goldenrod cloth available through Richmond Designs.
