Does anyone know of a source for the type of cardboard that Philco used for grill cloth backing on their radios in the late 30s and early 40s? My 40-201 will have to have the two pieces on either side of center replaced and the one in the center also. One side piece is crumbling away and the center piece is warped at the top from moisture exposure.
