Did I just Find Original 20 / 70 Grille Cloth?
#8

Here is a bit of blasphemy for you - Ron turn your head.

There were 3 patterns sold by GCH with that pattern. The only difference was color. They were Patterns 1. 2 and 24. Pattern 24 was described as a "weathered look" of pattern 2, but could be better described as a reddish brown version. This pattern was also used on some of the big, late 30s Zenith consoles.

If what you have is that pattern, I would be better to hold on to it intact, since these console take a larger piece. A GC similar to pattern 1 is being reproduced currently.
