How do you find the right turntable felt?

I have a Brunswick Cortez model phonograph that needs some turntable felt. The original mat is missing, so if anyone knows what would be the right color, I would appreciate it. And where is a good place to buy it? Thanks, Marc.

Looks like the original felt was a green color.
Walt Sommers has excellent quality wool felt pre-cut for a 12 in. turntable

Are you sure that's felt on the picture? Looks like velvet to me, like on some portables in the twenties.

Upon closer inspection (wearing the correct readers!

) ...I think you might be right ,Andreas.

i don't know about the later B-wicks, but both my B-wick uprights, have a velveteen fabric.

My golden-oak 117 has green velvet... not sure about the dark mahogany lurking in the back of my garage...

I just received my Cortez (I am very pleased with the condition).

The cloth on the turntable appears original and is velour or velvet. I cannot tell the color as I am exceedingly color-blind.
