Mars,
I think I mentioned what the species of veneer was in the thread you started about stripping the cabinet. In any event the veneer that was used on the control panel/top of your radio was plain cut French walnut, same with the veneer on the shoulders. As far as I know they did not use black walnut on these cabinets, though some manufacturers did. As for suppliers there are several out there, I bought mine from a fellow on fleabay about a year ago, along with a bunch of other veneer species and cuts. Albert Constantine has many species of veneer, so does Rockler Woodworking, but there are others.
Regards
Arran
