Oh also I think the lettering would have been red originally. I was in two minds when I started, I had seen one other example and it had red lettering - but there was no trace of red on mine and who knows maybe the other one had been painted red sometime during the last 70 years. I have since seen another one that has red lettering, so balance of evidence suggests red lettering and a black background originally. There was no way I was taking off the black and redoing it red though :)
Update: reading back I see I had seen 2 red ones previously, so that's actually 3 I've seen now with red lettering.
