Agree with you about the colours, but that's a matter of taste.
The yougher generations may have a thing for this colour scheme.
About the size: well, Gazelle 57, 58 and 59 cm frames were all exactly the same, except for the heat tube and seat tube length. Top tube length, angles, etc.. were all the same on all three sizes. So, with the right seat post and stems (also plenty available in the 1990s) it should be ridable for (almost) all people who want a 58 or 58cm frame.
Example: even though I rode Gazelle 59 cm road frame (later with a much longer t/t than standard), I used to ride an OTP 55cm Gazelle track frame...
