Radio Speaker Grill Cloth

Unfortunately speaker cloth is not available anywhere. The cloth in the one radio I had looked good, but actually when I took everything apart it sort of disintegrated.

Wyn there is a large variety of vintage radio grill cloths out there but nothing identical to yours. That is why I settled for the gold cloth ................ which is kinda similar to the faded original cloth in Rick Hulett's picture.
It is a case of near enough has to be good enough.

I cannot locate any similar cloth, could it have been clothing fabric with Auburns budget? Here is a radio restoration link, similar to 6v vehicles so there it not so much shock hazard. I like the idea of saving and reusing capacitor hulls.
