Schwinn Color Questions

Finally riding a big boys bike
Anyone know what year (or years) this color chart covers? Also the 1946 Schwinn dealer catalog lists DX standard colors as Red, Black, and Light Blue with Ivory trim. Does anyone have a photo of the light blue? If not which of the standard colors is closest?

I think that color chart is from the 1953 catalog, but I would say, that it applies from the mid 40s through the mid 50s.
 
I might be coming up with maroon fenders for my Hornet but I want the tank I'll eventually get to match the Red Hornet frame, and the springer I'm getting as well. More fender choices than tanks.
