Arran,

Thanks again. I think I am getting a better idea of the original finishes/wood. I found the attached photo from a 118H being auctioned some time back that certainly looks original in its finish.

This is not my radio which is seen at the start of this thread.

From the photo of the auction radio it looks like the top, dial board and front lower center were walnut venier and the rest cheaper wood toned to look similar. Is that what you are seeing in the photo?

Thanks,
Mike

Note from site admin: Sorry, but the photo which was attached to this post is no longer available.
