Default Original Case Colors

Looking for photos of super high condition original case colors for a 1920’s era VH. Anyone have such an animal?

I believe Edgar did tell us about the gun.

See the PARKER PAGES article entitled A PRISTINE VH, by Edgar Spencer, with photos by Mark Ouellette, Volume 20, Autumn 2013, issue 3.
