The original panel was 1/4 inch thick fibreboard. The modern reproductions that I have seen seem to be a much thinner cardboard version, albeit with a folded metal strip along the bottom. Can't comment specifically on the ESM one, only on what I have generally found.

My Traveller's panel, that it came with back in 1984, is a fairly thin fibreboard effort, only about 1/8" thick, with the metal strip along the top. It's a bit deformed, presumably due to damp, but still useable.
