'British Racing Green' (Ditzler 43342 or Dupont 8193)
was introduced on the 'B' in December of '62 but
replaced after only a few months, at the request of
the export sales department, by a darker color 'Dark
British Racing Green' (Ditzler 46446 or Dupont 8194)
that was available until '70 ... think we should add the
later to the list.
