Don, my Henry J with same interior had the alligator vinyl on the package tray.  Over that someone had put a matching headliner cloth  material over the package tray.  I covered the package tray with the material used on my seats.
Did you get the old upholstery I sent you?

The '53 J has a dinosaur grained cardboard cover

This is the original. I've been looking for one for a long time to replace this one due to the crack visible on the right side toward the rear.

All HJ package covers I ever saw were cardboard like the one I posted the picture of. I know Don Pribble covered his with dinosaur vinyl but it's not original. Others may have done the same. The HJ Parts book lists 210863 for the '51 and '52 and two types for the '53: 211594 (Dinosaur grained cardboard) and 211595 (ribbed cardboard).
