Philco 38-5B Cabinet Questions, grill cloth?
#10

Yeah - good point about the pattern scale.

I looked a round a bit more and found this one that seems somewhat closer in texture, but not so much in color (more silver than gold toned). I've never done it, but maybe it could be dyed? I know some people have even used a really light coat of spray paint...

It's hard to say though - I've been disappointed on more than one occasion when trying to buy grille cloth using just photos of the fabric in isolation (rather than in a radio).

There's always the venerable GRC-02 from Radio Daze.
