It'd be news to me if there were blue bulbs used in ANY of the Drake rigs.
I think it was just the blue plastic sheet that provided that 
color...not the bulbs.

I have a bunch of #47 pilot replacement LED's that I've used in my 
Drakes.  It was many years ago, but some company sent samples...The LED 
cast a much nicer glow than
the incandescents.
