In the 60s?? I dont think so....:)

1940s, for sure.....but think of the millions of those 1960s MIJ stencil sets...most of them were not WMP.....they were some denomination of the color Blue or Red.

I see more silver sparkle on ebay, so I say Silver sparkle, but that may be because people dont want to turn loose of thier Black Oyster Pearl. Or is it Oyster Black Pearl?
