Making a Slingerland eagle decal

Getting there...

Anyone know if the shell is walnut or mahogany? I can't tell one from the other.

I did some googling around. The grain looks a lot like African mahogany.

The outer shell is definitely mahogany, that was pretty standard for Slingerland and many other manufacturers at the time. It actually looks like a ribbon mahogany from the grain. Nice job on the eagle decal.
