A Touring Rapide in a color named "Carlton Blue", with a white seat, was at a British motorcycle show in New York, in April 1950.

The top photo is dated 2013 and the "slicer" says Magri Motorcycles. The Magris are San Francisco area residents, maybe they still have it?

OK , So I am colour blind :D .
Very nice Bill.My C Rapide has a turquoise petrol tank.Back in the early 70's I spotted a picture on the front cover of Motorcycle Sport of a bike with a blue tank,maybe it was yours?A friend stove enameled the tank in the kitchen oven while his wife was at work .Good paint too,it has lasted 50 odd years.
