This is my first post here. I have a Philco 16B Tombstone (pictured in Ron's Philco book on page 45 - lower left hand corner). Someone stripped this one prior to my getting it and they refinished it in light stains. I am looking to restore it to its original color combination. What were the original stain colors/shades used on it? Is there a picture that shows all sides of the tombstone cabinet, with correct finish, that someone can point me to?

Thanks,

Terry
