I recently purchased a Revere lighting catalog from 1958. It lists red, blue, green, white, and cream as the available colors for the shades. Has anyone ever run across a cream colored shade in a island light? I would like to do one in every color that was available and would like to have an idea of the color shade. Thank you for any help or photos.

I have nos ones in all colors. They are put away. If no one has a cream one to show, then I'll try to dig it out.

Dave,
If you have time at some point I would really appreciate if you could show the shade. Im in no rush and just wanted to see one. I didnt know they made that color until I found the book. Really surprised they didnt offer more colors really though. Thank you.

I tried to buy a pair of yellow ones once, They were on an old station island in Idaho. I was unsuccessful, only pair ive seen. so theres that also.

Could those have been white or cream colored originally that were sun faded?

Here is a cream one, on the left. It was repainted white and blue, but you can still see the cream. I have since cleaned it up, just one chip.

Do you have any photos of it after cleaning?

The shades I saw were definatley yellow. very striking and in ex cond.

Here is a yellow one, pretty rare color.
