Tom,

One would think that with all this technology today, a metal roller could be etched ($$$$$$$$$$) with the same pattern as the cardboard panels thus roll the panels producing the etching then spray paint the cardboard. I have not seen any originals of "textured fabric"...only cardboard with either the etchings on the board when the paint was applied or when the paint was applied, it was applied to show the texture in the paint on the flat surface.
