I decided to press forward on my own. I thought I'd share how the panels are turning out so far.
First I cleaned them up with just plain water and let them dry throughly.
They still looked very dull and bleached out, so I had a can of pecan stain, and and started to thinly paint it onto the piece
Closeup of stained area:
first completed piece:
My plan, once I finish up the other pieces, is to install these as a boarder on one wall of my bathroom, which is just off the bar area.
As a side question, has anyone every come across this type of tongue and groove paneling before? The back of each piece is stamped panel carve or panel craft. I have seen other panels with a slightly different carving on them too.
Sure wish I could see a room done in these type of panels from back in the day.
You see things and say, Why? But I dream things that never were, and say, Why not!
