I think you're right about the colour. Does you wheel have a Bleumel's
badge on it (on one of the 4 drilled blocks that separate the wires?) I
have never seen one with 4 large screws. The ones I have seen have 3 small
(6BA) chrome screws. I have owned both an original Bleumel's Brooklands
wheel and the Moss Reproduction. They are very similar although the
reproductions don't appear to carry the Bleumel's name.
hope this helps
