Hi and welcome!
Since this is a cabinet question, I moved it to Philco Cabinet Restoration.
It depends on which part of the upper curved part of the cabinet you are talking about. Bear in mind that the left and right edges are photofinish - strip that, and the "veneer" magically disappears! The center portion is real walnut veneer, though.
You don't want to do a lot of sanding - as little as possible, really - too much and you go through the veneer into the substrate. Try to avoid sanding if at all possible.
If you can post a photo of the cabinet, perhaps one of us can give you a better idea of what needs to be done to correct the problem.
