This may be primarily a question for Ron but others are welcome to chime in.

I have noticed several Philcos pictured in this forum lately with some variation in the design of the chevron patterned grillecloth.

When did Philco start using chevron patterns and did variations depend on the size of the cabinet or something else (availability perhaps)?

Also, when did they stop using chevron patterns? I had a 1948 model 48-1274 console once (pic attached) and it did not have a chevron cloth (as you can see). I'm sure it was all original---including a BEAUTIFUL original wood finish.
