Since you mentioned cloth wire, your set would have had a cloth cover line cord. If you are not looking to buy a roll of wire this, I think is a good deal: amazon.com/Creative-Hobbies-Covered-Electric-Stripped/dp/B01ATXNJ4Q/ref=sr_1_42?crid=SZN2ONR9QXYL&keywords=cloth+cover+lamp+cord&qid=1698029097&sprefix=cloth+cover+lamp+cord%2Caps%2C278&sr=8-42 Last I check cc line cord was about $1.15' Comes w/a polarize plug but it can be cut off and a period correct one can be added.
For cleaning the aluminum, I like a soft scotch brite pad (the white one) and a bit of WD-40. It is a little smelly but does evaporate after a day or two.
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
