Columbia

Working on this Columbia. Deciding on a color . Any ideas on what would look best ?

I’m partial to this green from a 33 Westfield Camel Back… you just don’t see it around much.

Do you know the name of that color?

Do you know the name of that color?

Columbia's colors of the early 30s (as listed in the catalog) were; Columbia Carmine, Berkshire Blue, and Black. I've not found mention of the green, so perhaps it was a Westfield-only color or a special order. I'm sure @catfish knows.

Thanks. I really like that green color. Would it sacrilegious to paint a Colson motobike that color?

Berkshire Blue, is green.

Isn't it more of an aqua color than the green fender in my pic?

I’m kinda partial to the Berkshire blue. I’d call it a bluish green. V/r Shawn
