  Trying to finish up a mod. 90 philco and was wondering if this cloth is close to original. Thanks

I bought some of the same for my model 70 and, holding it up to the original, it looks very close.

Glad you found that grill cloth. I used it on my 48-482 with the grain running horizontally, and lit looks great and is excellent acoustically. I think you will be happy with it. Good luck with your project ! Please post some pictures when done.
