Hello all,
I bought the 60s grill cloth years ago for a restoration job that never happened and I was going through my Grill cloths today looking for some for a resto I'm doing now and thought I would pass this one onto somebody that has a project waiting for some original cloth.
Its in great condtion , no stains,no fading,
Its bronze in colour and its a Nylon.
I would say it was either bought for a radiogram or was off a radiogram, I dont know because I bought it second hand years and years ago.
So I have 2 peices. One large one small ,tell me the size you need and I can post it to you.
Free to someones project see photo.
AIl the best,pete

I have some that is similar. Just a hint to those restoring 50s timber sets - this stuff also looks good on timber sets of that decade. Smile

Probably late 60s date-wise and even through to the early 70s on Kriesler stereo speakers. It just looks good on the slightly earlier stuff. Smile

Check the photo on this page. The photo isn't a big one but the grille cloth can just be made out.

Not local Kriesler because I got this in America years ago, but many cloths are similar to this design
