    Jackie, most cabinets in this and prior eras were fabricated of 'lumber core' plywood. This consisted of planks of various widths and lengths glued together and then a coarse layer of 'crossbuck' applied to each side to give stability. This layer was similar to veneer but thicker with the grain applied transversely. Then a thin layer of veneer was applied. If this was to be finished natural, top grade sheets were used. If it was to be painted, a lower grade was used and the sheets did not necessarily match. The finish could be likened to antiquing'.          Wes

>> B.  Chances are good that the original lovely veneer is under the paint.
>> Carefull stripping with a citrus based stripper should remove the paint
