What was the color of gas in the 1920's?
I have a visible pump and was going to set some window tint (not adhered to the glass but unrolled inside) to simulate a few gallons of gas.

Somewhere in my files I have an advertisement for a company that supplied the colors used in gasoline. They offered all kinds of colors.

Gilmore advertised blue green gas so sure that'd work well
