Victor 7-11: correct grille cloth ?

[De Soto Frank]

Does anyone have a photo a of a Victor 7-11 with the original grille-cloth in the radio speaker ?

Was it an unpatterned cloth, as used in the Orthophonics, or the herringbone cloth as used in the Radiola 100-A loudspeaker ?

This is what's in mine.

Hope this answers your question,
Bob

Thanks Bob... is this original, so far as you know ?

Looks similar to Orthophonic cloth...

Sorry Frank, I just now saw your reply ! Yes, I believe the cloth to be original to the machine.

The later machines used the "small diamond" cloth shared with the 1931 R-7 Radiolette and with the 8-35, 8-9 and the 10 35. Richmond Designs #3 is close: [attachment=2]1-Fabric005.16981116_large.jpg

The midget style "small herringbone" cloth is also appropriate
