Nelson-Wiggen Decal Colors
By Don Teach

I thank those of you that responded to my posting about Nelson-Wiggen
decals.  The one we selected has the blue background.  We have also
seen them with a greenish background.  The most pristine decals are
a blue color with a hint of green.  Did time age them to a greenish
color?  Any experts out there with an opinion?

 [ Many blue and green pigments have a history of stability problems,
 [ which is one reason why color illustrations in old magazines tend to
 [ become red as they fade.  A photo image of the decal Don found is at
