Well, Keith, I think you made excellent selections of tone colors, and that 71B looks great! Icon_thumbup Icon_clap

The only thing I would have done different would have been to tone the tops of the bottom trim along with the side edges. But overall, you have done a fine job, young man.

Interesting...some of those Clyde Shuler cathedral cabinets had toned edges and bottom trim, and some didn't. It seems to vary among cabinets of the same model number, not just between 1932 and 1933 models.
