Matt does it look more "orangeish" compared to the later 60s-early 70s reds? My 22 woodie is brighter than my later 60s 18 and 22
Perhaps a touch more orange and not quite as dark of a shade of red as the later MBH's. Less cherry, more strawberry 
@Craig and
@SixZeroFour I went searching the forum today to look for an answer or opinion to this very question and re-found this recent thread.
My 18.5 red Wood Dale is certainly a more orange hue than my Arlington Heights thumb screw red 18.5 made just a couple years later. SexZeroFour nailed the description in my opinion. The Wood Dale is more orange and not as dark. I would also say it is a bit more matte, but that could be method of storage for the last 45 years too. I prefer the red of Arlington Heights over the Wood Dale red. In the shade the difference is hard to see. In the sun it is obvious.
@jcnaz :
The discovery above means my plan to swap out the bottom on the wood dale will not work. Too bad because the lid is in good shape.
