Probably walnut veneer on your 42-380. Not the figured, fancy tiger or "butt" walnut, just a plain pattern. It will match the grain pattern on the top left and right panels, and run from front to back - vertically where it bends over to cover the front where the hole for the dial and knob shaft holes are.

I'll ditto Chuck's recommendation of Dick Oliver to make a replacement panel for your 70. He does fantastic work. He's listed on the PhilcoRadio.com Resources page also. By the way, he also does refinishing, cabinet repair, and even makes complete reproduction cabinets for the 20, 70 and 90 cathedrals.
