Those schemes are all examples of "non standard" that were in fact done to 
special order. Each of them were specific one or two off, and no more.
That's the problem with bringing up the exceptional rather than the standard 
in a publication, folks do what they want and justify it saying "well, they 
MIGHT have"
There are known standard paint and interior combinations for each series 
that did change periodically through the years, and it's these known and 
documented standards that I like to use and encourage.
