Spark Plug Wire Kit 239 -52

I would like to order new spark plug wires but have some problem to find what I am looking for. I dont like the glossy finish most of the colorful custom wire kits have.
I would appreciate some suggestions. I use the stock ignition with points. It does not have to be a kit, I could make my own if I just find the parts and I am not in a hurry and can buy from U.S or elsewhere. Thanks!!

An option would be one of the Brillman kits - they have the Cotton Braid Copper Core wire style as well as other options:

Looks like a quality product. I would prefer something like this in the picture if it's possible to find. Maybe black with green traces. Picture is from Sacramento vintage Ford (eBay store) but a kit for a 1942 Flathead. If I dont find anything like that I will probably go for the Brillman product.
Thanks a lot!!! Mats Nilsson, Sweden

+!1 on Brillman. They send you a catalog when you order something. Got new plug wires for my 1940 Farmall A, yep included was an inch thick catalog.

Mats, Brillman also sells the color traced cotton braided wire (just note it isn't factory correct for your 52 and isn't in completed kit form - maybe you can ask them to make a kit up for you using the color traced instead of plain black):
