[Hallicrafters] Hallicrafters Paper Chassis Labels

I am near to completion of a pixel-by-pixel restoration of an HT-37
paper
label as found on the back of these rigs.  I have maintained the font
used on these labels as closely as possible.  But when down to
individual pixels, it sometimes gets a little confusing.  But, the label
is very nice.    

I have found, the paper color from old Hallicrafters; to be a light to
dark yellow or brown in color.  In my pixel-by-pixel restoration, I have
decided on a bright white background with black lettering. 

My question to the group, does anyone know if the labels on these radios
when fresh from the factory, were bright white or were they already a
darker yellow or brown color?  I want to be as original as possible.
This is my crusade.
