Another way to improve the looks of them is to affix baseball card stickers, post office wanted posters, or refrigerator magnets to the cabinet. Maybe a good way to realize the 1933 look would be to decoupage 1933 newspaper articles to the cabinet???

P.S. Don't take ANY of what I said seriously! BUT believe me, I have seen some awful things done to an otherwise nice radio for only God knows why. The one that I think appalled nearly all of us here was the fellow on eBay that dismantled a Philco 116B non shouldered tombstone cabinet and sold the cabinet and chassis parts. Oy vay !!!!

The 15X is a set that I would love to have someday! Good luck with it!
