I can't tell from the photo in the catalog, but does the P/N 350.050 have a shiny bead or not?

I had the original channel from my '32. It had a shiny bead, not sure if it was nickel or chrome. That is one of the reasons I select what I did and that the lining was the closest looking to the original channel's felt. I'm not sure if the '28's had channel with a shiny bead or not. I'll leave that to someone else to input on.

One thing for sure, when it comes to restoring an car that is 80 to 100 or more years old it sure isn't easy to select substitutes for items that haven't been available for decades.
