Cabinetry wood

In removing my interior I noticed that there seems to be a couple of types of wood used. The 1967 brochure I have a copy of says that the interior wood is "American Cherry". I didn't know that there was country specific cherry?

I would think that they would have used "light (ie weight) and cheep" wood to keep cost and weight down.

Also what would the finish be that is on the wood?

I assume that the partitions are just panels with veneers on both sides, is this right?

Also, I found markings inside a couple of the cabinets as to the length of the trailer and one that showed that it is for a double. I will post pictures later tonight. It is funny that one showes it was intended for a 26 foot trailer vs. my 28 foot trailer. Just something to ponder....
