In my Book of Horton (as in Horton hears a Who) it clearly stated that 
the Glyptal was red on Dec. 25th, green on March 17th and on May 1st the 
three red, white and blue Glyptal colors were used. Many assume these 
colors were used on July 4th. But because the cars are British the date 
May 1st is in reference to the forming of the United Kingdom (same 
colors different flag). These special date notations are on the TAC 
certificate (True Anniversary Commemoration) but you have to see them 
under ultra violet light and the box gets checked with invisible ink. 😁

Seriously though Glyptal is over $50 a quart and given the very small 
amount needed a rather high price for authenticity.
