Philco 624 Farm Radio
#1

I tried to search for this piece here but nothing specific came up among the titles.  Not all that sure what I would search anyway.
I purchased this cabinet yesterday and would like to restore the finish or at least pay an homage to the finish.  The piece has been sanded down.  There are is a water stain on the top and a bit of peeling, water damaged veneer.  Veneer is all intact though so just a matter of gluing it down.  Mostly I need help with the stains and colors.

Is there someplace where there is a listing of colors used? Where they were originally applied etc.  Looks like the bottom rail and the outside inch of the front are darker in the pictures I saw  I have seen pics of originals?...some variations on the color scheme though.  
Here's a picture of the cabinet.
Thanks in advance
