I have the exact same model and the top of the shoulders was not veneered. Mine will need some refinishing as well so over time I have collected many photos of this model off of the internet and eBay auctions. None of them were veneered on top of the shoulders. As far as I can tell what you have done to the shoulders is almost exactly as I've seen it in prime unrestored examples. The original color was most likely a solid dark toner.
Question... how did you separate the different sections? On mine I have an area where the top of the right shoulder (from back to front) is separating slightly from where it should be touching the middle body section. I'm a little nervous about putting clamps on it and forcing everything together. I was thinking it might be best to separate the entire right section and reglue it but have no idea how to remove the entire section.
