I think that Ronnie is referring to the uncharacteristic looking wide grain oak, which looks like oak plywood... not typical of oak cabinets of that period. It seems that the two I have seen in person, had quartersawn oak cases...

Although NOT a requirement... you might have better luck by establishing a price that you would consider and then work from there.

Could some of the wood have been repaired?

The cabinet seems to be a copy made of modern type oak...

I am no expert, but it looks like cabinet grade ply. Maybe George could chime in or someone who knows about these.

Now available with a price...

... And with even fewer photos that if anything just seem to obscure as much as possible how this is a reconstructed/reproduction case.
