Difficult rule to enforce that one.
I don’t think I’d be shy of using that green ano one. I suspect the coloured Coloral cage is a few years later too. So a full middle aged FTW putting that on a late 40s bike. Oh wait, is this for your 52 build? I think the 1952 Browns lists the colour ano Coloral products.
I’ve been trying to figure out when the coloured CL hubs came in and they weren’t offered when the hub was introduced 1946/47. That’s as far as I’ve got.

Yes, alloy ones.
I’ve been surprised before by how early anodising appeared, but I think the green one is too recent and too bling (although I have an anodised green Coloral bottle cage so I could just go full kit wanker.
The Grand Prix I think is more likely to be PC. It’s apparently dent and ding free and the gold anodising will strip off easily and I’ll give it a polish.
Or maybe they’re both wrong and I should bring in a never BiN when half cut rule.
