Does anyone have a good source for the cloth covered wire to replace the connection between the chassis and speaker on 1930s Philcos tombstones and catherdrals? I am looking for something authentic looking.

I am talking about the 3-4 cloth-covered conductors that are usually green-white-green/white-blue/white.

I have plenty of 22 ga. cloth covered wire. But anything I use sticks out like a sore thumb.

What do you use to make it look close AUTHENTIC and ORIGINAL?
