I hope that John hasn't discontinued the pattern. It's so close for so many
early radios and record players, like the Credenza. Why don't you contact
him and see if he might still have some on hand. He needs to be made aware
of the possible market for it from we phonograph nuts. He's one fine
person. I used to see him nand his wife at the Elgin meets, and he sold
grille cloth like crazy. It sort of surprises me that more of the
phonograph-only crowd never knew of his grille cloths.

Unless you were referring to a different one.

Just did an answer to this for someone else. It's 
http://www.grillecloth.com. It's John Okolowicz, in Ambler, Pa. His 
website has pictures of all of his patterns, in color. Forgot his pattern 
number, but the cloth is a dead ringer for the stuff used in the Credenza, 
and many other radios, as well. He did have one; a gold diamond pattern 
that was absolutely the one on the Victor Electrolas, and several other 
early RCA radios used. The stuff is beautiful.

Can someone please direct me to the proper supplier where I can buy a 16 X 
8 piece of Grill Cloth for my Victor VV-1-90 Table Model Orthophonic ? 

I just bought a piece on line from a Phono Supplier who advertised Grill 
Cloth and specializes in phonograph restoration, what I received was a 
piece of shiny gold non-porous 
dress fabric that I could never ever use on this small orthophonic era 
Victor or any other machine for that matter. I told this fellow exactly 
what I wanted and what machine it was for. I even sent him a video of the 
VV-1-90. The grill cloth on the 1-90 is extremely close to the type used on 
a Victor Credenza, so that kind of Grill Cloth would be acceptable as well. 
Thanks for your help.
